G"day

I need to raise my 3 door slightly as the front tyres are scraping pretty badly over bumps. Also, being in Australia, the car has to have at least 100mm clearance at the lowest point to the road

If you know what springs you have fitted can you measure from the centre of the wheel straight up to the wheelarch for me? (Measure to the first fold down from the top of the arch trim as there are a couple more folds underneath)

Then I can work out if they will be high enough for mine.

Mine currently sits at 350mm rear and 295 front. I probably need it a good 20mm higher to keep the tyres off the arches and the cops off my back!

I know it's a big ask but it will be a big help to me!

 

mine are 330 at the front and approx 360 at the rear and i have spax adjustable shocks with spax springs fitted.

you may want to think about coilovers if you need to adjust the height. that way you can set it up to however high you want bud. i used to have avo coilovers on my old car, and they were good, but a lot of poeople like the GAZ coilovers too.
hope this helps matey!

 

sound like you need coilovers would make your like easyer and will tramsform the handling to

 

I run Mohammed bajou on mine

 

got avo coilovers on mine mate not drivn it yet hoping to have it out in time for show season

 

What height springs are they? The only listing I can find for Spax is -30mm?


Those heights would do just fine for me. Ï don't know what springs mine has at the moment (red ones on front and old rusty yellow ones on the rear is all I know!)

She's got Koni adjustables which are in good nick so I dont wanna throw coilover money at it.
I just need to make sure I dont get new springs which are just as low as the ones I have now.

 

thats the ones. 30mm lowering springs. it should sit at the right height then. (i have 17ich wheels on mine too, so as long as yours arent bigger)
