Ok, so my 30 year old springs we a little droopy in the rear. I took 2 turns out of each front torsion bar adjusters.
Car looks closer to level, still drives good, but measure ground to wheel well and I am not even side to side. Where should I be measuring ride height? Is there a right way? Does anyone bother to do this on scales to set the "tweak" like on my Radio Controlled cars? Does that matter for daily driver? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |

If you want to set to factory, it's in the Haynes Manual.
Measure from center line of wheel to ground is dimension "A" Measure from center closing cover on torsion bar to ground and this is dimension "B" A - B = 90 mm +/- 5 mm difference between sides is maximum. If you want it lower, just set it where you want it. The rack must be raised with spacers to keep the tie rods parallel to the ground or you get "bump steer" |
