Anybody know the ride height spec for a 6.9? I measured from the ground to the fender lip thru the wheel centerline and have 27 inches on my front and 26.75 on the rear. My car looks really high with a big air gap above the tires in the wheel wells.

thanks
Fred

Does it has the height control? The 6.3, 600 and some 300 series has a little pull lever.
Or maybe your ride height sensor not being correct.
The old cars has a little valve attach to the suspension thru a small linkage.
Too low , they let more air in, and too high lets air out.
And if u don't lock it when go hoist up, it will deflate once the wheel left hanging, when return to ground all your air will be discharged! Funny looks though, just like a kneeled Camel.

I'll stop by the garage where mine is being stored and give it a measure for reference tomorrow. I'll report back and see how it compares.

I measured 12 5/8" from the center hub to the lip of the wheel arch. Is mine a tad low?
