Does any one know if there is a correct proceedure for raising/lowering the ajustable coil-overs on the car and i mean like start fully up then rears first or is it just a case of keep trying? As i adjust one it seems to affect the heights of the other corners! Cheers.

do both rears and both fronts at the same time
or find an alignment shop that can do corner weighting

...or hire the corner weights and do it yourself...

Cheers guys-it was for my sons car & not my MX.As it is only a road car we did it ourselves just by measuring wheel height clearance.Its not perfect but close enough.Incidentaly its made me measure a number of cars now & it seems that most of them have uneven wheel clearance to some degree.

Are you measuring from hub centre to wheel arch? or edge of tyre to wheel arch? Tyres vary a lot (shape, size, wear) so probably shouldn't be used as a datum.

Good point Timmo-i will re-measure as a point of interest!

Or measure from the floor to the bottom of the sill/jacking point or something. Guess thats a bit dependent on tyres still.
