Riding Height Adjustment

NOTE: Prior to performing wheel alignment, perform preliminary visual and mechanical inspection of wheels, tires and suspension components. See PRE-ALIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS in WHEEL ALIGNMENT THEORY & OPERATION article in GENERAL INFORMATION.

Ride height must be checked with vehicle on level ground and tires properly inflated. Jounce vehicle several times to settle suspension. Measure vehicle height from side to side and from front to back. If ride height varies more than .39" (9.9 mm), repair or replace suspension components as necessary. Check vehicle passenger and luggage compartments for any heavy items and remove before performing wheel alignment.
