double-6s 0 Posted March 22, 2006 I did think I was making a valid point. A big fat german sat on the left (as vw intended) should nicely even up that weight distribution? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted March 22, 2006 Yep, it would..... average joe weighs 75Kg, so should balance it out nicely in a left hooker.... It's all academical really... a car finely tuned on a corner weight rig would be throw off balance as soon as you fill the petrol tank :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daves16v 1 Posted March 22, 2006 I was told from a reputable source (vw scene for years) that the standard height from wheel centre to bottom of arch is 360mm but last time I measured it didn't seem right. Can't remember why - don't have C anymore. Check it and make your own mind up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dr_mat 0 Posted March 22, 2006 Late cars have taller suspension than earlier ones. Which is not good, because they have the same jack as early ones, and it won't lift the sodding front wheels off the sodding ground. Grrrr... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
