Ride height

Recommended Posts

Hi guys I’m collecting my refurbished rear axle on Friday. Could anyone tell me what Standard ride height is?

I’m thinking of lowering it slightly?

cheers

IIRC standard ride height is 330.5mm between shock absorber bolt centres. For every 2mm you reduce that below 330.5mm the car will lower by 3mm.

Standard 205 GTi height is around 322mm between shock centres.

 

I think the 330mm figure is for base model beams with the thinner torsion bars.

just had a base model apart, 334!

 

330 is 306 with 20mm bars.
