Ride Height

Load each front seat with 150 lbs. Place 46 lbs. in trunk and ensure gas tank is full. To measure front ride height, see appropriate FRONT article. Measure rear ride height from lower edge of wheel arch to bottom edge of wheel rim. Determine average value of each wheel after lifting and lowering vehicle body and then average each axle. For correct ride height, see REAR RIDE HEIGHT SPECIFICATIONS  table. If ride height is not within specification or deviates more than .4" (10 mm) between wheels, coil springs must be replaced. Replacement spring can be determined from parts microfiche, parts supplier, or on old spring at one end.
