While troubleshooting the hydraulic components of the suspension system, the pressure tests are

more reliable if the vehicle is supported by the suspension.

If conditions do not permit this, pressure

tests should be re-checked to ensure accurate readings.

If the suspension must be supported, perform

the following procedure:

Place the vehicle on support stands to allow a safe working area under the vehicle while performing

procedures that require working through hull access plate openings.

If vehicle support stands are not

available, use two long, parallel timbers, or similar supports, between 12 and 18 in. (30 and 46 cm) high.
