hey ive tried searching and can't seem to find the stanard ride height of a 1973 KE20. Could someone please help me out ;)

Edited February 17, 200719 yr by 73KE20

mine sits at standard height at the front but sags a little in the rear. what do you want me to measure?

front please m8. its got cuts in the front but I'm buying new springs and struts and people can only tell me how much lower it will go not the the eyebrow height.

Run down to your local cop shop and ask to see their book of specifications.

 

From memory there was no eyebrow height as a 20/25 isnt listed, but you would have to have the car sitting 600mm from the bottom of your headlight ot the ground.

yeah cheers m8 but already done lol. I been to sprints (2 diff shops), repco, autopro and rang up ridetech suspesion, pedders, and a direct king springs dealer. knowone knows they can only tell me how much it drops from standard. So atm it stills at 325mm eyebrow height on chopped springs so i want it bout there on lowered springs

 

cheers Nat

I meant if you measure from the bottom of your headlight to the ground, 600mm is the lowest you can go legally.

 

Measure it up, see what its sitting at :jamie:

my car just went in today to get a new cat back exhaust and new engine mounts made. will measure it when it comes back mid next week.

ride hieght on my stocky KE25 is 170mm measured from the forward most part of the sill lip on each side

 

why do you want standard ride hieght? they look like friggen tractors stock!

knowone knows they can only tell me how much it drops from standard.

 

cheers Nat

 

so why can't you add what it drops onto the height it will be with them installed?

they don't know what height ride it actually sits at, at all they can only tell me what it drops. So i wana know the ride standard height. So i know how low the springs go before i buy them.

hey nat, did you buy henrys ke20?

nice work, very cool car good, good to see another one of my many rollas still making others happy.

 

call the cop shop, ask for standard ride hight, then compare to what urs is sittin at, I'm tellin ya now, urs is low.

i lowerd it and then henry dropped it more.

 

cheers scott

20/26 is listed but they only give you track measurement and towing capacity.

 

Eyebrow height is listed as N/A.

yeah i think i got it sorted cheers all for the help thanks. Yeah I'm in the process of bringing her back to life a bit, over the next few months keep doin what henry was doin. ill start a ride thread up when i do sumthing to it lol
