    Default Base-line setup

    1969 Merlyn MK11a... New to this car and am substantially smaller than the previous owner... Need to adjust the ride height, can anyone give me the baseline set up for ride height and where it is measured from (front and rear)
    Thanks
    Dennis

    Hi Dennis, hope you've had a good season. I have, barring some issues with a new engine. My MK11A is set up with 3.25" at the rear (measured from the center of the aftmost lower horizontal square frame element) and 2.75" at the front (measured from the center of the forwardmost lower horizontal square frame element). That seems to work fine, and I think anything in that ballpark, +/- .25", would be ok, while keeping the .5" rake from rear to front. Cheers, Alain
