Incorrect trim heights can produce symptoms similar to
wheel misalignment. Check the trim heights whenever you diagnose steering
and vibration concerns. Refer to
Trim Height Specifications
in
Suspension General Diagnosis.
Observe the following conditions to measure trim height accurately :
| • | Ensure the fuel tank is full. |
| • | Ensure the vehicle has no additional weight or passengers. |
| • | Ensure the front seat is in the rearward position. |
| • | Empty the rear compartment except for the spare tire and the jack
and a simulated fuel load, if required. |
| • | Position the vehicle on a known level floor. |
| • | Close the rear compartment lid. |
