110 standard height
Anyone know what the standard height of a 110 puma to the wheel arches. Wondering if the vehicle I have bought is already raised as seems high even for a tall guy like me.

This information is readily available online. Note however that there are different rear spring setup giving a different ride height aft for the 110 (commercial, pickup, Country SW)

Also you want to check your tire size, someone might have put on bigger ones.

Brill cheers. I have read though that different 110 models have different set heights I guess due to weight differences of pickup, dcpu etc

The DCPU always has a bum-in-the-air stance due to having springing for a 1-tonne payload. It's a choppy ride when empty!

That makes sense. Is there any way of identifying if HD springs have been used? Like diameter of the coiled metal or more turns per height?
