URGENT PLS: Suspension height feeback before aligment today

Hi gang

Dropping the Rangy at lunchtime for a fine 4-wheel alignment.

I have set it up to original spec using the IID tool, piece of cake to have it perfectly levelled Thumbs Up

I have read that some here got the back of the Rangy 10 mm higher than normal are quite happy with it. Some drop it 10 mm on each wheel.

I am looking for 1st hand feedback before lunch as I wont want to modify height once the FF is pin sharp straight.

Thanks a bunch. l=Oo\________/oO=l l:OolΞΞΞΞΞΞΞloO:l

I dropped mine 10mm all round.

I prefer the handling at this height.

4 wheel Alignment should be done at NORMAL ride height.

However, give it some thought, if you mostly do motorway miles, it might make more sense to do it at that setting?

For me, I have been unable to get both fronts at the same height (only @ 10mm out) so my alignment was done as is, along with a 10mm rise at the rears.

"Tyres" will tell in a few months time ? .
