stock ride height

[funbobby]

in standard form is a griff 500 lower than a chim 500? reason i ask is i have a steep drive but i know a 500 chim has cleared it. car i refer to is on original shocks but seems very good.

Should be the same height

Plus you haven't got an extra foot of golf bag carrier hanging over the rear of a Griff

Springs sag, some cars have adjustable platforms to set ride height. Small fitting tolerances in the body can make differences - hence always setting ride height in relation to chassis, never wheel arches etc.

If your clearances are tight, you would have to check each car, measuring ground clearance at the nose may be the most practical solution.

... also may have different combos of wheel, tyre, etc. All I know, as I get older, the speed bumps and pot holes get more numerous and higher/deeper.
