Post by msh »

I'm after the original stock height between axle and bump stop, back and front, any one able to help, better add it's for an 84 swb mk patrol.

I couldnt find this when I was raising mine, it doesnt even give you standard ride heights in the Nissan workshop manual which I have a copy of.
Don't ask me, ask them. I'm just runnin for my life myself.
Well they are all following you...

You could try your local nissan dealer. I tried to get these measurement before raising my GQ and the department of transport directed me to my local dealer who was no help to me. ARB, TJM and Pedders where far more helpful and told me the maximum raising limit. I guessed that if I couldn't find the original specs than neither could the cops to book me. :lol: And if they do lets see them prove it. :roll:

Do you still need the distance?

I have a std height MK in the front yard with what doesn't seem to be sagged springs.

Have a std height MQ for comparison too.

:cry: And this is supposed to be a fair country? :? :roll:

I should've learnt that by now. It has almost cost me a licence before....but then again it did. But just a bit later when the cops wouldn't stop following my old commodore that had excessive noise, mods and a lead accelerator. :D
