To adjust the preload, do the following:
  1. Elevate the vehicle to allow the suspension to fully extend.
  2. Turn the adjusting ring to the left to increase preload for a higher ride height. Turn the adjusting ring to the right to decrease preload for a lower ride height.
Factory Preload Settings

Follow these guidelines if you make adjustments to this suspension.
  • Always return the suspension to the factory setting after the load is removed from the vehicle. The increased suspension height will negatively impact vehicle stability when operating without a load.
  • Always apply the same adjustment setting to all four wheels.
Do not increase the spring preload by more than one inch (25.4 mm) over the factory setting.
