GTI beam on estate....a bit low?
#1
Probably not for most of you but for me it is as I need to lug stuff around and take it off road.

Anyone else tried this and remember if it looked a bit low? Trying to work out if the beam has been lowered or if that's normal for a GTI beam on an estate with the extra weight.

GTI beam torsion bars are 1mm narrower, ARB is thicker (won't make any difference to height obviously)

Beam I had on was the wrong one (previous owner fitted a refurb one) and it had 19mm TBs

GTI beam is also set a bit lower so wondering if it is this combined with 20mm TBs that are causing it to be a bit low (but older estates were not 21mm, just later ones).

Wondering if I should just get it raised up as tracking down estate beams in good condition is impossible!
