NA & NB measurement, front subframe height std

Postby munki » Wed Nov 30, 2016 7:43 pm

Hi all

Just chasing a couple of measurements from a standard na & Nb.

Im after the height of either the lowest point of the crossmember on the front and rear subframes to the ground or any other fixed point on the front and rear subframes.

This is for a conversion of mx5 setup into another car and I want to look into the lower arm and suspension geometry at standard height.

thanks in advance

Daniel

Phil Bradshaw was after something similar a while back, so it might be in here:

If not, will measure as not sure it's in the factory workshop manual.
