Need a quick favour from someone with stock KK suspension & Rims/tyres?
I need a quick but big favour from someone that has stock KK suspension and wheels/tyres (and a tape measure, haha) - ideally the JET limited edition, but std model fine too. Actually non-std tyres/rims should be fine too. Could you pretty please measure from the centre hub of your wheel up to the guard of the wheel arch? Should be around 450mm - 500mm at the front (to the nearest mm would be much appreciated). Rear figures would be great too if possible.
Back story:
I've got stickered by the cops (in Perth, WA) for having an illegal suspension lift. It's a std 2" lift from CRD Stu... and should be within the legal 50mm allowed lift without an engineering cert. Ironically I've had the suspension in for 4 years (and it's been GREAT on and off road!). Anyway, the cops reckon I've exceeded the lift by 13mm @ the front and 4mm at the rear based on their figures for a KK Jeep.
I've put the stock suspension back in and I'm still sitting about 40mm higher at the front than the cops figure for how high I should be... I'll pass inspection, BUT I seem to think the cops have the wrong figure in their DB... as I should now be at the exact height they have in the DB - definately not 40mm over!!
I'm also wondering if the JET is sitting a tad higher than the standard KK model - which would also explain why I'm not back to the height the cops have in their DB??! So VERY keen to hear particularly from anyone with a JET KK.
Much Appreciated,
Andrew
