Front height sensor rod above.


Carefully remove the original sensor rods. I find a golf divot tool works well for this job.


Locate the height sensor rods behind front and rear tires (left). You can turn the front tire outward to gain easy access for the front sensor. For the rear sensor you can remove the tire or go under the vehicle. Use safety precautions if lifting the vehicle or going underneath.

Install the Johnson Rods (right). The short rods go on the front sensor pegs and the long rods go on the rear sensor pegs. You must install two in front and two in back to have an even lift on all four wheels.
Remove the original height sensor rods by prying them off the pegs (left). Use pleanty of lubricant to slip them off the lip of the peg. Be careful not to break or bend the plactic arm. I found that a thin metal golf divot tool works well for removing the rods. The tool makes it MUCH easier.

When installing or removing the Johnson Rods (right), do not pull on the connecting arm between the rubber connectors. Apply white lithium grease to the holes and place pressure around the rubber connector to install or remove from the peg. Do not install without lubricant. Tool highly recommended.
