Eibach/Boge TG measurements

[Tony Lum <tlum@flash.net>]

Hi all,

In case anyone's interested, here are the dimensional changes before and
after the Eibach/Boge Turbogas installation.  All dimensions measured using
16x7 A8 wheel (ET 37) with Nitto NT450 in a 205-55R16 tire size:

Ground clearance measurements (taken wheel center to fender lip)
---------------------------------------------------------------
		Before		After   
Front		38 cm		34.6 cm
Rear		33 cm		27.9 cm

The rear shocks were Boge p/n 32-115-F and requires modified spacers
designed by Igor Kessel (thanks Igor :-)

As I'm telling everyone (who'll listen), the ride's very smooth and not too
stiff at all.  Clearance is tight with ET 37 offset, but it does not rub.

Regards,

-Tony
