Ride Height

Ride Height
1. Drive the vehicle onto a runway lift.
2. Jounce the vehicle's front and rear suspension to normalize the vehicle static ride height.
3. Measure the ride height.

4. NOTE: The torsion bar adjusting bolt is coated with Loctite(R) that wears off after disassembly. If the torsion bar system is ever disassembled or the torsion bar adjusting bolt is ever removed, use a new torsion bar adjusting bolt when re-assembling.





Adjust the torsion bars (height) as necessary by tightening or loosening the torsion bar adjusting bolt.
^ Tighten the torsion bar adjusting bolt to increase the torque or raise the height.
^ Loosen the torsion bar adjusting bolt to decrease the torque or lower the height.
