Recommended Posts

I think the ground clearance on my pre lit is to low  what is the safe height for road use. thanks

Something around 3 inches(75mm)  is the minimum for road use anything above 4 inches(100mm) is not really necessary, just avoid roads with speed humps like the plague  ;)

BTW: it depends what is the first thing to 'hit' - if it's the chassis/floor then this is not as dangerous as the sump(most likely) or bellhousing flange (as in my case, as the engine is set quite high and I have a shallow sump)   :D

Had my suspension geometry set-up by a guy that sorted cars for the 750MC.

He set my road-going front ride height at something like 3.5” saying this is the lowest but safest. Must also take into account your sump!

the height from the bottom of my sump measures 2.5" think i'd better raise it up a bit cheers guys
