L1
The dimension«L1» for checking front height is between the level of
the front subframe «b» and the wheel axis «a».
This method eliminates all the variations in measurement due to :
Different wheel fiittings.
Vehicle loading.
Wear or incorrect inflation of tyres.
(Measuring from the wheel axis : tool 8006-T)

Rear height Front height
NOTE : After each movement of the vehicle body, and before each mea-
surement :
- Move the vehicle slightly forwards and backwards, by turning the road
wheel by hand.- Check the tyre pressures.
- Release the handbrake.
- Place the manual height control in the «NORMAL» position.
- Engine running.
L2
The dimension«L2»for checking rear height is between the measuring
zone «b» and the wheel axis «a».
H1 = R1 - L1
H1 = Front height(± 6 mm).
R1 =Wheel radius(mm).
L1 = Theoretical dimension between the level of the front subframe and
the wheel axis.H2 = R2 + L2
H2 = Rear height (± 6 mm).
R2 = Wheel radius(mm).
L2 = Theoretical dimension between the measuring zone on the cross-
member support and the wheel axis.

Measuring front height
The measurement of the front dimension «H1» is between ground level
and the measuring zone on the front subframe
(to the rear of the front yokes fixing the suspension arm).
L1 (mm)
Theoretical dimension between the level of the front subframe and
the wheel axis.
140L1 (mm)
Theoretical dimension between the measuring zone on the cross-
member support and the wheel axis.
