Feel for any sticking, and then move the struts around to check for any binding. Move the A-arms up and down too. You may have to detach the sway bar to feel for the binding.

And while you're in there, get the measurements for Bill V.
Good points - I've got another set of raised spindles being built now so when we get them back we're going to test all of these things. We're also going to look into the ball join where the strut connects to the control arm to see if theres any friction there.

This has been a real pain haha
