Any ride height tips?


Curt Nichols
 

I got the monster truck tires* mounted on the mudshark and dang if they
don't fill out those wheel wells, maybe a bit too much. Upon returning
from my "settle the suspension and give 'em a good heat cycle" drive, I
noticed a grandprixweiss scuff on the outer edge of one of the rear tires
(fantastic potholes here!). I can still fit my fingers between the rear
tires and fender without pinching them badly, but I'm thinking I need to
make sure the ride height is adjusted well.

So, I've armed myself with the factory specs, a handy tip page
() and a little knowledge (DANGER!). What
I'm still lacking is a handy tool for turning the nut to adjust the height
and any sage advice from those who have gone before me. (I've searched the
Rennlist archives for "ride height" and came up completely empty. This is,
of course, impossible.) Any tips in the "make it easier" category are
appreciated.

*Okay, they're not quite mudders, they're S-02 Pole Positions on 9/10x17"
Kinesis Supercups. But they DO fill out to the fender nicely. Only 70
miles on 'em so far.
