Riding Height Adjustment: Notes

NOTE: Before performing wheel alignment, perform preliminary visual and mechanical inspection of wheels, tires and suspension components. See WHEEL ALIGNMENT TROUBLE SHOOTING under STEERING & SUSPENSION in BASIC TROUBLE SHOOTING article in GENERAL INFORMATION.

NOTE: The suspension ride height is not adjustable.

The vehicle suspension height should be measured before performing wheel alignment procedure. Also check suspension height when front suspension components have been replaced. This measurement must be performed with the vehicle supporting it's own weight and taken on both sides of the vehicle. Front and rear ride heights are not adjustable. The spring selections at manufacturer assembly determine ride height for acceptable appearance of the vehicle. Ride height dimensions assume full fluids (including fuel) and zero passengers. See appropriate RIDE HEIGHT SPECIFICATIONS table for ride height dimensions.

Vehicle ride height measurements should be performed utilizing the following procedure: Drive the vehicle straight and forward on a dry surface for a minimum of 20 feet to neutralize track width. Bounce the front of the vehicle 5 times. Measure and record the ride height dimensions.
