Some measurement...

I need to find out what height the front of a ute sits at, because i want to get some springs made up to suit, but i dont know what length to get them made. I have 200B struts, with the spring carrier welded on lower than normal.
so instead of getting the struts re-done, ill get longer springs instead (thanks chris for the idea).
So, What height does the bonnet (or some other point) sit at off the ground?
Cheers, Linc.

Too friggin' high! That's where the bonnet of a Ute sits! I'm sorry, I don't mean to offend anyone. Ride height is a personal taste thing. I prefer a lower stance for handling, you prefer stock for... Well, I can't think of a reason to prefer stock ride height, but that's OK. As for your question, don't the factory service manuals have "crash rebuild" specs? I'm just taking a stab at someplace you might look. Once again, sorry if I offended anyone who likes the "off road" look. Oops, sorry, I did it again. My bad.

i have to agreeee, my coupes lowered 3 or so inches and i still want to go lower, just 3 things are stopping me, the police, the fact that when its ready to be, it wont get registered and i wont be able to turn, not that any of those reasons are satisfactory
