Standard ride height.

Nigel1943 · Aug 8, 2013

Having just replaced the air bags my car seems to be a tad high on the drivers side (RHD).
Does anybody know what the correct ride-height is, both with engine running and not. Disco II on 18" wheels, 255/55 tyres.

if you didnt disconnect the battery before fitting the bags the sensors may need calibration with tester, there is only one standard height with engine not running:

Standard ride height, measured between the tip of the axle bump stop rubber and the axle, is 61.5 mm (2.42 in). ORM ride height, measured between the tip of axle bump stop and the axle, is 100 mm (3.93 in).

but if you fix it to standard the ORM(off road mode) will be calculated by the management

I was really looking for a measurement from road surface to say, the wheel arch.

then find somebody with the same type of tyres as you have to tell you...otherwise it's irrelevant

As per my original post. One side is a tad higher than the other. I'm just trying to determine which one is correct (or not). Saves me scrabbling about underneath. I've suspected a height sensor for a while.

Standard ride height.
