Ride/Trim Height Measurement and Adjustment
Fig. 5 Vehicle Ride Height Measurement Locations.:
Refer to Fig.5 for vehicle ride height measurements. When checking ride height measurements, fuel tank should be full, tires at should be correct pressure, front seat should be in the rearward position, trunk should be empty except for spare tire and jack and vehicle should be on level ground. If fuel tank is not full, add weight to trunk to compensate for amount fuel the vehicle is below the full level. Prior to checking ride height, lift front bumper upward approximately 1.5 inches and gently release (3 times), then check front ride height. Push front bumper downward approximately 1.5 inches and gently release (3 times), then recheck front ride height. Average both readings to determine vehicle ride height. Check rear ride height in same manner, lifting and pushing rear bumper.
