cant decide UPDATE

[puzzledzippy]

whether to go for a 60mm drop or a 40mm, on my driveway you have to go up the droped curb and then down the driveway ,if i got 60mm would it ground out.

[Baz]

i would drive up the drive and check how much clearence you have until it would ground.

[puzzledzippy]

you mean put it on the level have way on and off my drive.it will be just my luck that there is not enough room.

[wideboy]

considering u have the front and rear valances - id go for 40mm.

would look class 60mm though!

[Baz]

yeh park it where the clearence it at its lowest when driving up and down and then see how much you can drop it from that. you will need someone else to measure though unless you can keep your foot on the break and get out to measure smileys/smiley17.gif

[dsh85]

the adjustable does not mean ride height mate, just that you can choose between a softer and harder shocker

[Robb]

Alright mate, is your car at Motowize you say?

I'm having a nightmare at the moment, I put my car in there today for a new rear axle and to get it lowered. But the axle hasn't come in, and I doubt it will be for a while. You'll probably see my car tmoz when you pick it up...
