paulleo 72 Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 I think the ground clearance on my pre lit is to low what is the safe height for road use. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterg Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 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) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil H Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 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!

paulleo 72 Posted April 9, 2002 Author Share Posted April 9, 2002 the height from the bottom of my sump measures 2.5" think i'd better raise it up a bit cheers guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
