Just a few questions,just bought an escos thats fitted with koni suspension,it sits really low. Is the suspension adjustable? Also theres a bit of a knock on full lock coming from the left hand side front wheel! Any ideas?

Springs are what determine the ride height, so you would need to change the springs, not an easy job!

The Koni shock absorbers are adjustable but this just effects the dampening.

Re the knock it sounds as if it may be the CV joints need replacing.

Thats what I have, they are widely regarded as the best!

They are near enough standard ride height.
