ride height of 86 carrera
Looking for the fender heights of an 86-89 stock carrera to get a baseline for adjusting my ride height. I am adjusting it by adjusting spring plates and front torsions to trim heights as listed by Porsche. I am curious to once I set these values where my car sits in relation to a stock 86-89. Thanks Jerry

A stock 86-89 911? Is there still such a thing? If you set your height to Porsche spec., then IT will be stock height, I think.

I don't think mine's been too molested. It MIGHT be a bit lower than stock but certainly not "lowered". 26"f, 25.5"r.

Thanks for the responses, I will be attempting again this saturday to set my ride height. Not really looking to lower it significantly, just trying to achieve the stock ride height of the 86-89 carrera, which I believe was set at only one height by factory, no more USA vs Euro height. Fender heights would be a great referance point, Thanks Jerry
