Title: Tow ball height
Post by: robson on 15 October 2010, 19:26:49

Can anyboby tell me the tow ball height on their 2.6 facelift saloon, Mine appears quite low and I wonder about the springs The car has only done 68000mls but maybe the springs have been changed to lower the back end.

TOWBALL HEIGHT
In all instances it is imperative that the correct towball height specification is met.
Caravan: 430mm +/- 35mm
Car: 385mm +/- 35mm
These measurements are taken on a level surface and represent the distance from the ground to either the centre of the towball or the centre of the coupling head. This requirement is part of EC regulations and must be adhered to.
