    Here are measurements taken on level ground.
    Drivers side Front 36.0cm Rear 36.0cm
    Pass side Front 37.0cm Rear 37.0cm
    I don't know why the passenger side is 1cm higher...maybe due to the car mainly carrying one pax. Vehicle was police car (not pursuit) so possible was driven by very large sergeant. Has 258,000km on it still with original shocks etc...nothing has ever been replaced and car still rides very firm with no rattles.

    My driver side is slightly lower than the passenger side too and mainly just me in the car.

    Over half a century ago my Mum took me up to the police station with a view to getting the sergeant read me the riot act and pull me back in line....the sergeant showed me his size 12 boots and told me how he used them. Never mess with a man wearing 3 stripes!
