Abstract
A tool for indicating whether a measured ride height of a vehicle is within a tolerance range for a specified ride height is provided. The measured ride height is equal to a vertical distance between a reference surface of the vehicle, such as a vehicle frame rail at a suspension centerline, and a rotational axis of a vehicle wheel. The tool has a support member, a first measurement member, and a second measurement member.
