Frequently Asked Questions

How much will these H&R springs change ride height?
The drop or lift is specific to the exact part number, vehicle, axle load, factory suspension, and installed equipment. Use the listed range as guidance and confirm the current H&R application notes.

Can these springs be used with factory shocks?
Compatibility depends on the exact spring set, shock condition, travel, factory electronic suspension, and H&R application. Confirm the complete combination before installation.

Is an alignment required after spring installation?
Yes. Ride-height changes affect suspension geometry. Allow the suspension to settle as directed, then have alignment and all clearances checked by a qualified shop.
