Who on here has .............
« on: 27 September 2016, 15:44:11 »
Eibach springs fitted to a facelift estate ?

Need a measurement from the top of the tow bar ball to the ground if possible please  :-\

No point pishing about with a tape measure on my Mv6 and taking away 15mm because my springs have done 150K and will have stretched / sagged out of proportion  :(

Trying to work out if I can still pull the pikey van with Eibach lowering springs  :-\

In theory this is no chuffing use to you at all, but ... I can tell you what Pissy's ride height it later on, knowing for a fact she's sitting higher on MV6 springs, than she used to on her old sagged original springs. And she used to tow. (including a 1300kg Royale on a trailer)


The towbar's in le parent's back yard now, being lovingly converted to iron oxide.  :)

Nup

Mv6 at the front
Standard size, heavy duty springs at the rear.
Different rear springs fitted to even out the extra weight of the LPG tank in the spare wheel well.
Car sits perfect with a full tank of LPG and 1/4 tank of petrol.
B4's all around.
