Gap question

Hi guys,

Raised my suspension this afternoon and thought that it looked lower on the near side rear! Out with measuring tape and I have 34.5 " near side and 35" offside!
Ground to bottom of the wheel arch !

How do I lift it that .5 using my gap tool? I'm still quite nervous using it in case I screw it up and going on holidays next week!!
I looked at "height" and there are four arrows!

What's next??

Thanks in advance

i'd run it for a few days chef and go through the heights modes couple of times...when measuring again make sure its on an absolutely flat surface.. ... - .- -.

Bear in mind the acceptable height difference is 9mm per side, which easily accounts for that missing 1/2" Thumbs Up

If its not massively noticeable, I wouldn't be too concerned. You can spent hours re-doing the calibration to get it absolutely perfect, for not much benefit

In addition, the air compressor gets a hard work out with constantly adjusting heights and replenishing the air reservoir

Hi David, I guess you used the Gap EAS Calibration Aid (http://www.gap-diagnostic.com/wordpress/we...on_Aid.pdf) and looked at the sample EAS calibration sheet (http://www.gap-diagnostic.com/wordpress/we...lation.pdf) provideb by Gap? If not, I would recommend to use these. When I adjusted the height on our ffrr, I used these sheets to get it right.
