    ride height

    I have a customer with 2003. He has slight frame damage from collision. its too late to replace frame. Is there a way to adjust rear ride height on air ride systems? Thanks for any information.

    Sean - Welcome aboard.
    There is a linkage adjustment over the rear axel.
    I'am sure someone else will chime in with specific directions.

    I'm not understanding the question. Are you suggesting an adjustment to ride height to compensate for damage to the frame?

Kind of scary, when thinking of the scale. Makes one think that maybe it'd be a good idea to do some introspection and think about what each of us needs to do to build a solid community, analyze what it is we're all honestly looking for by belonging to this community.

    See the red lines under everything? That means that the link under seanking01 post to the arcade has an open (missing end tag) HREF tag.

    Welcome aboard. Enjoy the site.
    (#6178 in black per FPIC)
    Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate.

    MM traded in 8/9/13 @ 128909 miles. It was fun for almost 8 years. I met airmercpun on 1/17/14. He was the new owner of my former ride. -Now gone.

    Update: back in the game with a late build 03 GMGS with some MM add ons like Escape audiophile radio w/Sirius sat radio, rear sway bar, catback exhaust, and header panel.

    Rest In Peace:

    See my garage file for part numbers and whatnot.

    IMHO, this site- the members that I chat with- and the ones that I now Hang with- are like my 2nd family. There is such an ongoing welcome feeling here that even members who don't or no longer own the MM can feel.

    frame damage

    Why not fix the frame? I believe, all, or at least most insurance companies will allow for a supplemental claim against a previously covered accident when new damage is discovered after the initial repair. Compensating with an adjustment to the ride height seems a bit hokey.
