I bought the vehicle with a 3" lift kit on it (or that was what I was told anyway). I then asked Exeter 4x4 for springs to lower it to 2" (so that I don't need castor correction stuff etc) and they worked out what the vehicle ought to weigh based upon what I told them it had on it (e.g. winch, rock sliders etc.), to calculate what poundage the springs needed to have. The problem is that the springs they sold me don't seem to have made it discernibly lower and everyone who has seen the vehicle thinks that it is still a lot higher than 2"
I've got big wheels on it (16" and 235/85 Bronco Grizzly Claws) + the wheel arches have been cut out to allow for the big wheels, all of which makes it difficult to tell by eye how many inches of lift the vehicle's had.
does anyone have any good rule of thumb for measuring the lift, please? e.g. measuring from the top of the axle to the highest point inside the wheel arch (and what the measurement is on a non-lifted Disco)?
