    This turned up in the postSLS Components



    And I've ordered some bags from Mario

    Also added another SLABS ecu and changed setting for the moment to coils with my new Nanocom but will be changing to air when I have all the gear installed, any tricks for setup of the heights?? Calibration??
    I've read a few post on the subject and will probably use jacks on the chassis rails and measure the heights between the bump stops and axles.
    Anyone shed some light on the exact place to measure??

    Cheers Lemo

    You can set the heights without measurements, use jacks as you well intended and put a bubble level tool on the boot floor, adjust jacks untill it's perfect then save those as target heights, that's how i did and it's on perfect level while the height values are uneven so never rely on tester readings for height calibration...i used one like this

    Hi Craig, just a thought, but do you still have the height sensors on the trailing arms?
    Cheers, Mario

    Thanks sierrafery,
    I understand I'll need the level, but where should I measure?
    I've read standard heights are 61.5mm and off road 100mm at the tip of the bump stops, but I'd think that's not very accurate! I don't want to over extend my new bags the first time I use them!!
    Any other advice?

    Cheers Lemo

    I put the bubble level tool in the middle of the boot floor, when both bubbles are in the middle it means the body is perfectly on level as you dont touch the front, if the height is too high or low the horizontal longitudinal bubble will not be in the middle, or if both sides are not the same the other bubble will be out, for example in the picture the sides aare OK but the rear is a bit high... so with this tool the rear will be at the same height with the front and that's the gist of it cos only measuring heights can not be relevant if the front springs are not exactly at factory fitted lenght... i dont know where's better to measure as i dont do it
