Ok everyone back out to the garage with the tape measures as this actually could be interesting to see how the height and width of the cars compare. i can't do mine at the moment as my tyre and rims aren't on the car at the moment.

mmmm Grave DIG :D


The Vit as it stands Now still needing Tray and exo /front bar

Door handle Height (base of handle) 1175mm ( 46.26")

chassis Height 520mm (20.47")

Overall Height Of rig (highest point on roof (centre) 1940mm (76.38")

Diff clearance on 37"s (60's crooza) 315mm (12.4")


Should be around ( once 1 1/2" wheel spacers are fitted,to get the the shite 17x 8 offset back to similar width when on crooza offset wheels)
1912mm wide or 75" ....this measurement is to the outside of the krawlers which are on beadlocked rims....

Just had a measure up and I'm now at 46" :cool: . I measured to the centre of where the key hole would be (44") and then added 2" as that's the distance to the bottom of the door handle from there.

Also the lowest part of the chassis is under 20" tall, and that is also the lowest part of the car apart from the diffs now :cool:


Current specs are SPOA on LC diffs, flatish springs, 5" long shackles (i don't recall what stock length is), NO b/l, 35" mtrs, and wheelbase is 104"

Finally found the tape measure
85 Drover, 31s, SOA & 2" shackles

Height = 45"
Width = 59"
Ratio= 1:31 (width divided by height)

Ratio: Like power to weight ratios provide an even camparison for performance the Height to Width ratio should give a comparative indicator of stability (ignoring spring rates, swaybars, body type blah blah blah)
Probally get a more accurate ratio measuring in metric (millimeters)
Measure width from outside edge of tread to outside edge
Break the tape measures out again

EDIT:metric
H= 1143
W= 1465
R= 1:281
