Checking the Ride height 

Once the vehicle is on the ground, the scrub needs to be taken out of the tires so the ride height can be
measured.  In order to remove the scrub the vehicle needs to be driven at least 10 feet.

Measure the front and rear ride heights as shown on a flat and level surface.

FRONT 

The FRONT should always be set about 

½

" higher than the REAR. 

       REAR 

Increase spring preload to increase vehicle ride height. 

WARNING: Be sure not to add too much pre-load into the coil spring. Doing so may result in coil-bind, leading 
to  spring  failure  and  potentially  injury  or  death.  If  you  are  at  maximum  preload  and  need  more  ride-height, 
contact FOX for a stiffer spring. 

The distance from the ground to the front outer frame rail should be between 13.5-13.75”

The distance from the ground to the rear  frame rail should be between 13.25-13.5”

The optimum vehicle ride height will be determined by exact vehicle configuration and usage. 

Individual vehicles can vary significantly in weight so it is important to check the ride height when you first 
install your shocks. For example, if you have added accessories to your vehicle that increase the weight, you 
may need to consider alternate spring rates.
