RIDE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

Note. Proper ride height is necessary for correct wheel alignment. Check ride height with vehicle on level floor. Ensure less than 15.5 lbs. of weight is in trunk (other than spare and tools), fuel tank is full (unless specified otherwise), fronts seats are in full rearward position and tires are the correct size and properly inflated. Tire inflation specification can be found on door pillar, sidewall of tire, sun visor or in glove box. On vehicles with electronic chassis controls, ensure all systems are functional before adjusting ride height or wheel alignment.

Visually inspect vehicle for signs of abnormal height from front to rear or side to side. If ride height is not within specification, check, repair or replace suspension components.

ORDER OF ALIGNMENT

Note. To ensure accurate alignment, align wheels in the following order: rear camber, rear toe-in, front caster, front camber and front toe-in.
