Ride Height


HEIGHT MEASUREMENT - 4WD (LD)






Measure and record the height from the ground at the centerline of the rear lower control arm bolt front tip (2)
Measure and record the height from the ground at the front spindle centerline (Static Load Radius) (1).
Subtract the first measurement from the second measurement. The difference between the two measurement should be 58 mm (2.3 inches) ± 3 mm (0.12 inches). If value is greater than 61 mm (2.4 in.), tighten the torsion bar bolt until the specification is achieved. If value is less than 55 mm (2.1 in.), loosen the torsion bar bolt until the specification is achieved. Repeat the previous steps until the ride height is within specifications.
