Topic: Ride height

	[No title] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		It is also known to reduce the ride height at high speed where it can be assumed that the road is smooth and better aerodynamics are important, and also to provide an access level for the vehicle where the ride height is lower than is suitable for normal driving.
		This ride height is only maintained while the vehicle is stationary, or travelling at less than a predetermined low speed, and is designed to enable easy access to and exit from high off-road vehicles, for example.
		The increase in ride height from the first level is preferably triggered by the vehicle reaching a pre-determined speed which is preferably between about 10 and 20 kph, such as 16kph for example.

	Riding On Air - Or Not:Servicing Air Suspensions, Larry Carley, Brake & Front End, March 2004
		When the suspension is lower than its normal ride height, the system module energizes a relay to turn on a compressor and pump air into the air springs, shocks or struts through solenoid valves.
		Maintaining a consistent ride height is important because ride height affects wheel alignment, tire wear, handling, traction and the aiming of the headlights.
		If a change in ride height isn't accomplished within three minutes after the need is indicated, the system warning lamp comes on and stays on as long as the ignition remains on.

	Height Limits (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		New Jersey ride owners successfully lobbied the state for a rule allowing ride owners to disregard the minimum height requirement as long as the undersized rider is accompanied by a rider who meets the height limit.
		Ride owners in New Jersey may be willing to take the risk of boarding undersized children because they have lawyers who can prove in court, after a child is injured, that parents assume liability in cases where they choose to ignore the posted safety requirements.
		According to the state of California's report on the second Wipeout accident, the theme park tested the ride's ability to restrain small children during negative-g portions of the ride by "utilizing a water jug and a large stuffed bear in an attempt to simulate passengers".

		With a full tank of gas, the ride height (from the bottom of the fender to the center of the wheel) of my car is: front left: 13", front right: 13 3/8", rear left: 12 5/8", and rear right: 12 7/8".
		The new ride height is in the front was lowerthan what I started with, and roughly the same height as the rear.

	Facts about topic: (Torsion beam suspension) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		The main advantages of torsion beam suspension are durability, easy ride height adjustability, and a smooth ride.
		It usually consists of trailing arms connecting to a twistable beam that runs from one side of the car to the other.
		This design's advantages are mainly space and cost, and does not offer the performance or ride height adjustability of torsion bar suspension.

	Bilstein HD Shocks for 1995-1998 Porsche 993
		The ride quality with the Bilstein HD was firm but not harsh, the shock rebound were quicker than the factory M030 shocks.
		The ride quality was excellent when combined with the Eibach sports springs, I would assume that it would be just as good with the factory ROW M030 springs or HandR springs.
		Surprisingly the ride height is a little higher with the BIlstein HD shocks compared to the factory shocks, I am guessing it must be some design difference with the shock compression which caused the difference.

		The height is determined by the coil-spring and pad.
		Actual ride and control point can be mutually exclusive, since the controller works on a pure linear deflection and not on a 'relative level' based measure.

	Ride height adjustment
		This figure was discovered by trial and error based on my requirement for a 25mm increase in ride height - having wound the collets up by 25mm I discovered that the actual ride height had increased by 30mm (25/30 =.83).
		I made up small cardboard templates that I rested on the top of the nut retaining the bottom of the shock absorber to the bottom wishbone to mark the position of the spring collets both before and after adjustment so that I could ensure that both sides were treated to the same amount of adjustment.
		Changes made to the front ride height will have a small effect on the rear and vice versa due to the 'lever principle' around the respective wheels.
