Front Suspension
« on: 09 March 2013, 16:55:12 »
The front suspension on Omega is low sometimes the mud flaps catch the road if we are on a bumpy section of road.

Has anyone replaced the front springs and shocks and if so as it raised the front suspension.

Its 26 inches front and 27.5 on the back.

The car has now done 110,000 miles.

Not sure what the measurement should be, but the ride height should be the same all round. Does sound low at the front.

See if you can examine the shocks and springs. Are they leaking or broken respectively. And what make are they?

Any history in the front suspension, as to what's currently fitted...?
