Before I really get involved in the system(which I think has a air leak) I wanted to check the suspension height D by the procedure in the service manual. It also mentions vehicle attitude is controlled by bumper to ground dimensions.(Is that curb height?) It says that dimension is in group 47. I have no idea where that would be. Can you please tell me what the bumper to ground measurement is? The air pump is cycling quite often and will blow a fuse now and again. Thanks

Hi dgpost,

Thank you for the donation and sorry for the delay in replying.

I was not able to get the bumper to ground measurement and only managed to get the suspension height specifications.

Thanks for the info. It will be useful. I can not believe that a curb height spec.(Whether bumper to ground or wheel well opening to ground) is not readily available

Kerb height is not accurate for the suspension as road surface might affect it. The "D" measurement is more accurate as it involves two fixed location.

Technical specifications in our data base does not mention the kerb height.
