I've phoned JKM and they have said majority of the cars to need to be highered if they are running low...

I may not be able to get on as i don't have the C-Spanners for the coilovers..  :undecided:

They can only confirm once the car is there, but they said ideally it would be best to higher it to be safe.

Hi All,

We do manage to get most cars on the dyno 'one way or another  :smiley:'
It usually involves a little bit of creative thinking due to the small ramp leading into the dyno room.
The main issue is when the front wheels drop into the dyno, the cars can tend to belly out, which isnt ideal and makes running it tricky.

Hope this helps

That's good to hear, as it will be a boring time for me coming all the way from Jersey, Channel Islands!  :grin:

Mine was lowered last time I went on JKM's rollers and had no problems. Think mine is about 60mm drop.

But can bring my C spanners with me in case anybody else has a problem!
