I see no reason to think that a ute would not also have this "load sensing valve" fitted.

Just checked the manual John and it does not mention "except utility" so it should have same setup. :?

the spring has to be level when the vehical is at rest.

what ever spring lift you have , make a plate the same length and space up the bracket which holds the spring :armsup:

i posted this else where. remove the bolt and replace it with all thread and 3 nyloc nuts. one tho hold the thread and one either side of the lever. put a temporary plate as high as your lift and see where the spring pulls to and adjust the nuts accordingly, then remove the spring and plate. use this as a starting point and adjust as you go

cheers bru
