Refit wheels, fit nut protection and tighten the fastening nuts; remove stands and lower the vehicle. Then tighten to the specified torque the following components: (wheel fastening nuts nut and lock nut fastening the torsion bars to the relevant levers nuts for screws fastening the upper tie rods to the relevant levers. ‘Adjust torsion bar preload as described in the following paragraph. Torsion bar preload adjustment Check whether tyre pressure is the specified one and then using the proper gauge, check whether tyre tread depth is, almost the same on bath whee!s. ‘Measure on both vehicle sides the height (H) from ground of side member upper edge ~ measured as close as possible to suspension connection area Height (H) shall comespond to the value specified in the following table.
