ADJUSTMENT
RIDING HEIGHT
NOTE: On vehicles with electronic chassis controls, all systems
should be functional before attempting ride height or wheel
alignment adjustment.
Before adjusting alignment, check riding height. Riding
height must be checked with vehicle on level floor and tires properly
inflated. Bounce vehicle several times and allow suspension to settle.
Visually inspect vehicle for signs of abnormal height from
front to rear or side to side. Check passenger and luggage
compartments for extra heavy items and remove if present.
Models are tariffed in RIDING HEIGHT SPECIFICATIONS table to
indicate the proper method of measuring ride height. If riding height
is not within specifications listed, check, repair or replace
suspension components.
NOTE: Ride height between left and right side of vehicle
should vary less than 1" (25.4 mm).
