Default Got Mina lowering springs up front? Please measure ride height.

Hello guys,

If you have installed the Mina lowering springs on your FRONT suspension, I would greatly appreciate it if you could measure your front ride height and report it here.

The Mina springs are supposed to lower the car 1.2 inches from the STOCK height...but my front springs are seventeen years old and tired- and as a result the car is not quite sitting at stock height. I'd like to know how the Mina front ride height compares to my original, tired springs.

If you're willing to help, please measure the distance from the ground to the lip of the front fender, with the measuring tape bisecting the center of the front wheel.

My current front ride height is:
LEFT: 27 inches (68.5 cm)
RIGHT: 26.75 inches (68 cm)

Thanks for helping a brother out!

I can't help you right now, but I'll have the Mina's installed in the next week or so. The Jag is in the shop right now for that installation and other things. If you don't have the answer by then, I'll measure it for you. =)

Thanks Jeff- and yes, we're familiar with the "other things" you're doing with your car...and have already done! What a great toybox you've got there. I'd love to come take a look when we bring our daughter to UA later this summer.

Anyone else have Mina springs up front? Ideally I'd like to get measurements from a few different cars.
