If the vehicle does not meet curb height specifications, continue with Section "0 - Setting the Vehicle Design Height" before continuing with
this procedure. If the curb height is within specifications, continue with Step 4 of this procedure.

Height. This is due to the extreme stiffness of the rubber used in the suspension component bushings.
