My new Legnum has adjustable coil-over suspension.

I'd like it less low; where in Embra can help?

Do you have the C spanners for the suspension in question? And a set of digital verniers?

If so it's a real easy job, plus you end up with them set up exactly how you want them through trial and error,

Part of the reason I want it higher is so my wheelchair isn't sooo far above when getting out...

CLCM in Sighthill?

They have a good reputation for setting up tracking etc for modified cars.

Except that if you are adjusting it my more than a couple of centimeters you can alter the camber and tracking, by how much depends on your cars individual suspension. Yer man at Sighthill will do all that, he is excellent.

In saying all that, I have C spanners, castor/camber guages and tracking gauge if you want to have a bash yourself.

If you're happy to have a wee drive then I can highly recommend Job Gevers at Dunfermline Automotive Services. He setup my Subaru and it was fantastic! Tel: 01383738077

I think I probably want as much height as I can get, so a trip to CLCM is probably in order...
