I sent my rear shocks away to be rebuilt. I asked them to keep the original settings as they were from when Leda originally fitted them. I got the shocks back and now the car is on stilts at the rear. Looks about 40mm higher than before
Would it be possible to set the hight up myself?
Say if someone who has the Leda suspension themselves setup correctly, was to give me the measurements between the centre of their wheel to the edge of the arch, would this be somewhere near?
(especially a Type R)
If not does anyone know a good place in the north-west who can do as good a job as Leda did in setting them up?
Any advise would be greatfully received as it looks cack.
Cheers, XXX

v easy to adjust - get wheels off & springs sit on 2 collars that lock together - untighten with Leda C spanner & turn (one way up, one way down)until desired height reached - tighten together again & Bob's yer uncle.
Measure height drop u want & move collars that amount - mine's about 8.5cm top of rim to arch - slightly higher at back than front.

Just spoke to Leda who said it may need a little time for the springs to loosen up a bit, and i could lower them about 20mm in the time being.
Can anyone give me their measurements from arch to centre of wheel to give me something to go off. The arch to rim depends on size of rims so unless you have 18's it no good im afraid.
Thanx in advance
