Trim Height

Trim Height

Trim height is the normal position to which the control arms move when the vehicle is sitting on the ground.

Check by slowly releasing the bumper, allowing the vehicle to assume its normal trim height.

Measure the distance from the street level to the center of the bumper.

Push down on the bumper, release slowly, and allow the vehicle to assume its normal trim height.
