Suspension Height
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2022 Subaru WRX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Park the vehicle on a level surface.
- Empty the vehicle so that it is at "curb weight".NOTE:
Unload any cargo, load the spare tire (tire puncture repair kit), jack and service tools, and fill up the fuel tank.
- Set the steering wheel in a straight-ahead position, and stabilize the suspension by moving the vehicle in a straight line for 5 m (16 ft) or more.
- Measure the distance (d) from the spindle end (c) to the ground surface.
- Measure the distances (e) from the end of mounting bolt for the front arm rear plate (point "A" shown in the following figure) and from the end of bolt for the sub frame assembly rear at rear (point "B" shown in the following figure) to the ground surface.
Calculate the suspension heights (a) and (b) using the following calculation:
(d) - (e) = suspension height
| Model | Suspension height specification mm (in) (Tolerance: +24 mm-12 mm (+094 in-0.47 in )) | |
|---|---|---|
| Front | Rear | |
| 17-inch model | 133 (5.24) | -14 (-0.55) |
| 18-inch model | 138 (5.43) | -9 (-0.35) |
