WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Ford Ranger, 2003 Ford Ranger, and 2002 Ford Ranger. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
Use hand tools to adjust ride height. DO NOT use power tools.
Drive vehicle onto runway lift. Jounce vehicle to normalize front and rear suspension static ride height. Measure ride height. See Fig 1 . Subtract measurement "A" from measurement "B". Ride height on original suspension components and replacement components should be 3.4-4.6" (87-117mm). Adjust ride height by turning torsion bar adjustment bolt. Tighten torsion bar adjusting bolt to raise height. Loosen torsion bar adjusting bolt to lower height.
