Riding Height Adjustment

  1. Check tire pressure and adjust as necessary. Ensure wheel bearing play is correct. Place vehicle on level ground. Remove any unusually heavy items before checking suspension.
  2. Measure height from highest point of fender cutout to wheel center. See Fig 1 . Compare left and right side measurements at both front and rear. Side-to-side variation should not exceed 0.4" (10 mm). If riding height is not within specification, check for spring damage or sag.
