Suspension adjustment

[loneranger]

How hard is it to adjust the suspension to make a Puma more level. I had my 110 wagon in the Dealer today for warranty work one of which was to adjust the suspension to reduce the driver's side lean. When I picked it up I was told the suspension was within tolerances and wouldn't be adjusted.

When I got home I got out the tape measure. The driver's side is 2cm lower at the back and 2.5cm lower at the front.

If it is easy enough to adjust I might just have to do it myself as it is quite noticeable.

The job sheet says that it is normal for the driver's side to be lower.

I've got the same problem in my newest 90, the drivers side is definitely sinking slowly....

You want it a little lower on drivers side so the vehicle sits flatter on cambered roads.
Up to 2cm should be fine.

We had the 110 back at the Dealers today following a complaint regarding the last warranty visit and they measured everything. It runs out the suspension is within 4mm and the chassis is pretty level as well. The issue with the lean is the body panels.

They have suggested they could send it to a Land Rover authorised smash repairer who could put some wedges between the chassis and the body to lift it level.

We'll be taking it back to our smash repairer to make sure there was no damage from when the fron was hit by the gate.

Does anyone have any thoughts on what else could be the cause? When I measure from the ground to the bottom of the wheel arch there is an approx 2cm height difference.

It is looking a bit more level following today's check so I think they may have made some small adjustments.
