Riding Height Adjustment
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 11 other vehicles, including the 1991 Mazda RX-7, 1991 Mazda Protege, 1991 Mazda Navajo, 1991 Mazda MX-6, and 1991 Mazda MX-5 Miata. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
On vehicles with electronic chassis controls, all systems should be functional before attempting ride height or wheel alignment adjustment.
Before adjusting alignment, check riding height. Riding height must be checked with vehicle on level floor and tires properly inflated. Bounce vehicle several times and allow suspension to settle.
Visually inspect vehicle for signs of abnormal height from front to rear or side to side. Check passenger and luggage compartments for extra heavy items and remove if present. If riding height is not within specification, check, repair or replace suspension components. See RIDING HEIGHT SPECIFICATIONS table.
