Coming back to drop in a couple of pics of how I check ride height. I'm lucky enough to have a 180mm/7 inch ruler - just the right length. A longer ruler gets in the way, at least upfront. Just cut to fit.

The rear is easy. This is 163mm.


The front checkpoint is in the middle of the lower A-arms rear bracket, very inaccessible unless the car is on a lift, as shown here.


As I mentioned before, this checkpoint is about 10mm above the bracket's outer lip low point. You can get to the outer lip of the rear bracket from behind the front tire. It's a bit awkward but even my short arms can rearch it. Here it is, reading 139 (there is a little paralax error from the camera angle). Add 10mm to get 149.


Yes, I'm probably going to raise the front 10mm.
