Riding Height: Front

  1. Check that vehicle is full of fuel, oil, water and on level surface. Press down on front bumper and slowly release. Then, lift up on bumper and slowly release. This will settle front suspension.
  2. Measure distance between lower face of cross-beam and ground on both sides of vehicle. Correct height is 6.0" (152 mm) minimum. If necessary, add or remove packing rings beneath springs to achieve specifications. Packing rings are 1/8" (3.18 mm) thick, and adjust height by 5/15" (7.93 mm).
