Good Morning,
I am planning to get my teener's front end aligned this Saturday and I have a some concerns and questions. It seems to me that my front end is to low. The measurement from the “doughnut” is 5 inches, and the back doughnut is 6.5 inches to the floor. I have tried to raise the car with the adjustment screws but at full travel that only raised the car a quarter of an inch. I suspect the PO did something with the torsion bars. Now my questions are: 1- Is this front to back height difference the reason the car “feels” a bit unstable at higher speeds? 2 - Is this 1 ½ difference between the front and back a problem? 3 - If so how or what do I do to get the front end or adjusters up back into the 6 inch range? |
