Ride height question for R

[lclevert]

What are most people using for ride height for an R front and rear and where are you taking the measurements?
I believe FFR recommends 4" front and rear. I read somewhere on this forum that 4" front and 4.5" rear was a good setup.

I have my suspension installed per FFR instructions for the R configuration. I was testing the adjustment last night to see what I could get. I adjusted the front springs to get 4" in front measured under the frame near the steering rack.

I tried setting 4.5" at the rear measured under the frame at the rear bulkhead, but cannot get it that high. The rear shocks are at full extension before I can get to 4.5".

I am only in gocart trim so don't have all the body weight on the car yet, but I don't see that impacting too much.

Could I have something with my suspension installed wrong? What are others setting their R ride height to and where are you measuring?

Thanks

Is the top shock mount in the upper or lower hole? It should be in the lower one.

The R ride height is lower than the 818S. 3.5 front and 3.75" rear to get started and adjust the roll axis to suit your driving style.
