Ride Height

Lifted the car off the axle stands and put it on it's wheels for the first time. Front end was extremely low and had a slight mishap when removing the jack, chipped the front bottom corner of the tub. Bought a gel coat repair kit some time ago so will give it a try later.

Removed the nose cone to allow easy jacking from the front via the crossmember.

Gave Leon a call for the ride height details and he told me that it is 110mm front and 130mm rear, measured near the front bottom wishbone and near the rear arch. Adjusted the front shock absorber spring tension by hand until the collar became difficult to turn. Then adjusted the push rods until the ride height is 110mm and also that the bottom wishbones are about level with the floor.

Jacked up the rear end and adjusted the rear shock absorbers by hand until the spring was being held by the collars. This gave a rear ride height of 130mm, re checked the front and adjusted the push rods to give 110mm.
