Delta ride height
« on: 01 August, 2019, 07:43:05 PM »
Could anyone who owns an HF Turbo ie advise me of the distance from the ground to the top of the wheelarch when sitting on standard springs. Also, has anyone fitted lowering springs and if so,what make and any adverse effects?

Hi David,
 
I'm not sure of the dimension that you've mentioned for but I'm happy to have a go at measuring the distance on mine & let you know what it is. As mine's been lowered by 40mm I'll just add that to the measurement. I've fitted Spax lowering springs to my Delta but as mine is still off the road at the moment I haven't had the chance to do a road test yet.

Regards, Rob

Hi David,

Sorry for the late reply. The dimension on my Delta is 61cm. If you add the 4cm that I have lowered it by that should be 65cm. Hope that's useful  ;).

Cheers, Rob

Thanks Rob, the car is up on the 2 poster at the moment so can't check height but I at least have a reference now.
Cheers,
