Here's hoping mate!
Here's a few pics complementary from Keith...
He isn't around his laptop so asked if I could post these up for him.
You must be rather relieved that its done - assuming it is?
Looks great. Would appreciate knowing the heights when you can. And what you're proposing regarding the bump stops and rear sensor arms.
Well done Keithy !!!!!!!!!!! :twobeers:
Gary
Thanks For posting them up for me Peter!
And cheers lads!
Ill be away for a week or so, upon return ill measure up! The good thing is that I must have got the sensor arms right when I lengthened them as the car sits level in all heights.
The pic of my Rangie is in Standard height, the two of the spacers on the car are with the bags deflated so it may look odd, the one of the rear spacer on its own is a shining example of my (getting there) welding skills - or moreso the development of them!
What the plan is for the height sensors, is to shorten the lower arms a bit, and lengthen the top arms and include a slight bend in the arm to prevent the chassis to arm contact. Just looking at the rears, I will need to keep 40mm of bump stop extension as the piston gets mighty close to touching the top hat of the bag, the fronts I will make a 20mm bump stop extension - all once I've modded the height sensors again.
Cheers
Keithy

That welding style looks very familiar, pretty much a carbon copy of my welds, ;).
Gary
Haha does that make us both awesome :-)
The welds are actually pretty damn good. Dad was a boat builder before they sold up, so I've seen hundreds of km of welding.
