Defender Stance
Can some one tell me what the "normal stance" of a RHD Defender should be???

I.e. If the Defender stand level on a level surface should it be completly level looking from the back or should it lean to the one or the other side?

Would like to know before I book her in for service------the dealers wouldn't know in any case and just tell me it is normal Rolling Eyes

90s tend to sit more level that 110s. My 110 looks like a hot-rod if it's empty

Should be pretty much level. But if there is a difference the drivers side should be slightly higher.

Thanx Thumbs Up

Just wierd....since the normal camber of RHD roads are to the left I thought it would actualy be the other way around so that the car runs level on a left camber road?

I gues it is this way to compensate for driver weight but holy moly....you need to be quite large to level it out. i am 100kg and don't level it out....
