Thanks for measuring - if anyone else wants to measure up, particularly KAP builds, it would be interesting.

i spoke to darren k.a.p who tells me that the drivers side is slightly heavier about 35kg with the offset of the enginge transfer box and fuel tank and this is what causes the problem.

Nothing to do with my not inconsiderate weight always being on the driver's side then?

Our passenger sides are pretty much the same, but I wonder how much higher that side was originally. Can anyone with another brand's lift straight out of the box or just settled in have a measure up?

How long did the spring spacer raise it back up for Martin? Do you think It's a worthwhile temporary fix?

I always though my weight was inconsiderate as well ! I always wanted considerate weight - cos it would go and slow someone else up instead of me!! :laugh: :laugh:
