Fig. 4 Vehicle Trim Height Measurement.:

1. Place vehicle on level surface.

a. 1/8 tank, add 70 lbs.
b. 1/4 tank, add 60 lbs.

4. With front tire pressure of 30 psi and rear of 26 psi, measure vehicle ride height, Fig. 4.
5. Measure from front (A) or rear (B) of rocker flange, to locate vehicle height measuring points J (front rocker height) and K (rear rocker height).
6. A is 4.6 inch and B is 4.1 inch.
7. Measure vehicle height from level surface, to bottom horizontal surface of rocker panel. Do not measure from rocker/jacking flange
8. J should be 7.8-9.1 inch and K should be 8.1--9.5 inch.
