Z Height Adjustment

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Chevrolet Corvette. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: When adjusting the spring adjuster bolt, J 42743 must be used in order to prevent damage to the rubber shear pad on the end of the bolt. One complete turn of the spring adjuster bolt is equal to 2 mm (5/64 in).
  1. Using J 42743, adjust the Z trim height by turning the spring adjuster bolt. See Fig 1.
  2. Lower the transverse spring back onto the lower control arm and remove J 42743.
  3. Measure the Z trim height again.
    NOTE: Do not exceed the maximum difference between the right and left spring adjuster bolt gaps.
  4. Measure and adjust the front spring adjuster bolt gaps (1) to 2-24 mm (0.078-0.944 in). See Fig 2.
