SUSPENSION ADJUSTMENT TOOL
Shorten the spring for a firmer ride and
rough riding condition or when pulling a
trailer.
Lengthen the spring for a softer ride
and smooth riding condition.
NOTE: Factory settings are suitable
for almost all conditions. Take into con-
sideration that an increase in ground
clearance can affect the handling of
the vehicle.
WARNING
The left and right shock adjust-
ment on front or rear suspension
must always be set to the same
position. Never adjust one shock
only. Uneven adjustment can
cause poor handling and loss of
stability, which could lead to an ac-
cident.
Lift the vehicle. Spring length should
be equal on both sides.
NOTE: Spring preload affects ground
clearance.
Adjust spring preload by turning the ad-
juster ring.
