Estate suspension

[Willo]

Dies the estate always seem lower at the back than the front I've looked at a few and they all seem to be this way

[Smiley69]

I've just been out to double check mine, which is still standard set-up, but no I wouldn't say they are lower at the back.

Yeah they do genraly tend to be stanced backwards mate

I.E back lower than the front

[Willo]

That's ok then thanks guys

[c.gerrard]

Well, really it depends on how low the front is

Hes at OE hight all round

Yes they tend to be lower at the back, a 40mm front drop and standard rear looks nice on them.

Carl was referring to the lack of lows on the back of mine...

[Toms306]

The only reason I can think for this is that the same beam is used as the hatch...but obviously the estate rear weighs more!

I think they sits well at the back tbh, shame the front looks daft!!

[cwspellowe]

Bear in mind the estate rear hangs out further than the hatch too, so the weight has a greater moment in relation to the pivotal point of the trailing arm, hence them being lower.

Thanks for all the answers I'm just glad I ain't got abproblem with mine tbh never thought bout the extra weight and length being to blame lol

[Jonny81191]

I have some 40mm springs needing a good home!

PM me if interested

[Dum-Dum]

Dont worry, they look even stupider with 400L of compost in the back and a fat mate on the tow ball.
