Ride Height Adjustment - Dodge 2016 Viper SRT ACR Owner's Manual

5.2 Ride Height Adjustment

Your ACR is delivered from the factory at a ride height that provides a good balance for drivability on the street. The adjustable suspension
allows for ride height adjustment. As with all of the suspension adjustments, caution should be used when changing the ride height.
Before any adjustments are made to your ride height, clean threaded area with soapy water to be sure it is free and clear of debris.
CAUTION:
Only the factory ride heights should be used while operating the vehicle on the street. Low ride heights can cause damage to the vehicle.
Adjusting The Ride Height
1. Raise and support the vehicle. Both left and right
side wheels should be lifted off the ground to allow
adjustment of the spring seats without damage.
Never make ride height adjustments with the
suspension loaded. The helper spring should never
be fully compressed while adjusting ride heights.
2.
Remove the wheel and tire assembly.
3.
With a spanner wrench, loosen the lower locking
nut below the lower spring seat.
4. To lower the ride height, use the spanner wrench
and rotate the lower spring seat counter-clockwise
(as viewed from below the damper).
When ride height is adjusted, use corner weighting scales to ensure symmetric handling and even tire loading.
5. To raise the ride height, first turn the seat in the
counter-clockwise direction and ensure the threads
are clear of debris. Use the spanner wrench and
reverse the direction.
6. When the desired ride height is set, retighten the
locking nut using the spanner wrench.
The ride height adjustment sensitivity is as follows:
Front: One turn = 0.082 inches (2.09 mm)
height change at frame
Rear: One turn = 0.099 inches (2.52 mm)
height change at frame
