Ride Hight
 
Hi Guys,

Have any of you got a good ride height measurement? From chassis to ground.


Cheers,

For the book Haynes Roadster, with the lower wishbones horizontal, it works out at about 11 cm front, 12.5 cm back, give or take 1 cm. Since the engine sits 25 mm lower than the chassis in the book design, the ground clearance at the sump is about 8-9 cm.
