Check the following when the vehicle height is changed.
· Make sure there is no play in the spring when the suspension is fully extended.
· Make sure the suspension does not come in contact with any part of the vehicle chassis.
(ex. driveshaft, suspension arm, etc.)
Thread Length Adjustment/Vehicle Height Change
Height to be lowered ÷ Leverage Ratio = Amount of Thread Length Adjustment
Example: If the vehicle height of
31214T is intended to lower by 10mm:
10mm ( Height to be lowered ) ÷ 1.20 ( Leverage Ratio ) = 8.33...mm
Therefore, adjust the thread length by approximately 8mm.
Leverage Ratio: A ratio of the vehicle’ height to the ride height adjuster’s adjustment amount.
(31214T · 312141 – Front 1.20 / Rear 1.29)
CAUTION
There is a limit to shock body length adjustment. Adjust between minimum and maximum figures as shown in
the table above. Using the vehicle with the suspension outside the limit of minimum or maximum shock
body length may cause damage to the suspension.
coming into contact may cause damage to the suspension and/or the vehicle.
