Thread: Standard Suspension Height.

there is an Oz Federal Trans Dept website that lists all that data for current cars, but doubt it would go back to a RRC. I'll try and dig it up.

The other alternative, but will require an international call to the mainland is Andrew at Les Richmond Automotive as I'd bet he'd have an axle to bump stop height measurement as all their lifts are determined this way.

I've just put a standard set up back in my RRC. Front bumpstop measurement about 50mm, rear about 75-80. Measurement front and rear from mid axle to guard is 450mm.

There is a standard bumpstop measurement in a thread somewhere for a Disco1. I'd think a Rangie Classic would be the same.

As Rick said Andrew will be able to tell you....It is written in one of his catalogue's but i cant find my copy.

From memory bumpstop clearance on the front is 2" to 2.5"
and the rear is 3 to 3.5"

I just found what I was referring to in my diary.

It was quoted as being 2.5in so I make that 63.5mm. The poster didn't differentiate between front and rear.

Excellent, thanks.
My RRC measures 475mm, so I'm only about 1" above stock.

Hi Dougal,

I have measuremnents of 470mm for standard height, RRC EAS settings for standard ride height according to factory specs, front and rear. Measured from centre of wheel to wheel arch lip.

For a P38A, they use setting blocks (I have a set):

I was given these genuine LR height setting gauges a week or so ago:

Sorry I don't have a CAD program.

PS there is an error in the drawing. The 30mm section is the next bit down. I'll fix it tomorrow. Sorry - and thanks to Hoges for noticing it ops:
