. I also installed the bottom stop, it’s removable so I can swing the arm down more to get the tyres off

Drove it around the block, it’s no where even close to being finished but at least it’s easier to move around

Swapped the wheels over on the red bus today, apparently the guy at the rego branch doesn’t like my Porsche wheels!

Looks good but unless your painting the top half white black out that pop out
Way too many projects

Love the ride height!

Assume high enough to get over speed humps with passengers?

(Everyone thinks I'm nuts when actively trying to avoid speed humps in the 911... Ok when it's just me, but feels like my soul being scraped off when I bottom it out with passengers). Can't bring myself to raise it though.

Yeah plenty of ride height, about 120mm underneath with the raised front beam and I raised the rear shocker mount, the taller front tyres may rub, have to see how that goes, only been around the block a few times. Interior seats still need to be done and I have to make up my mind on 2 tone paint or not, could be a while till it’s finished. Ian

Just checked... No passengers the 911 has 90mm at it's lowest point... So 120 sounds good.
