I've got mine up on the lift now.
Looking closely, I noticed a tiney dot / dimple in the center of the front torsion bar cover. Handy for the measurement. Rear caps do not have this but they are aprox. 45mm dia. so center is 22.5 added to the measurement from the bottom. I'm going to be taking a close look and tweeking over the next few days. Things are a little screwy now, maybe because the fuel tank is not full or that the rear settled more than the front. (remember this is the 1st settlement after setting it up after removing and replacing the whole suspension. Anyway these are my excuses for the front being high! Front: Wheel centers 11-3/4", t-bar center to ground 143.5 mm, fenders 25-1/8" Rear: Wheel centers 11-5/8", t-bar center to ground 267.5 mm, fenders 24" I'm going to fill the tank and see what happens. What method / techniques do you use for setting front caster/camber? I did not have slip plates before and it took some effort to move the top camber plates within the adjustment area (like a box). Is this because of the weight of the car or because I'm fighting the tires?
