ride height

I just installed new upper control arms and am about to take it to an alignment shop. is it standard practice to torque the nuts at ride height? that's of course what I did, but do the alignment shops know to do that?

I assume it’s possible to determine one’s “lift height” by measuring from the bottom of the frame to a level driving surface (accounting for any different tire size from stock)? If so, does anyone know the distance between the bottom of an 80 series frame in stock form and the road? If you have...

I've observed slight changes to camber depending on my 2009 LX's ride height. No sensor adjustments - all stock. I didn't see this point pop up in the other alignment threads. In Low Mode and 'highway low,' I've observed slight negative camber. IE, the top of the wheel tucks in toward the...

It finally happened guys, I'm almost certain that the two front AHC Globes have s*** themselves and imploded and fluid is flowing unrestricted into the 2 front shock absorbers. Every bump in the road turns the entire front end of the car into a vibrator and getting out of the driver's seat after...

Hi - New to forum and recently acquired a new (to me) 1978 FJ40. I love all classic vehicles but have mostly done cars up to this point (have a 73 vette I have done all of the work on and sold a 57 bel air which I did everything on as well except body work) so the FJ and old rigs are new to me...

Hey guys, my '93 runner has finally hit bottom, literally. I planned on replacing the coils with stock length springs and use airbags to help out. Now I'm leaning towards 2" lift coils and possibly still bags later on. Anyone have a brand preference? I'm sure there are many threads on this...
