Sag or illusion?

Mitsubishi Delica L400 production commenced in 1994 -- After much anticipation, the L400 arrived on Canadian Soil in 2009!

Sag or illusion?

Post by obeygravity »

I can't tell if the back end of my van (98 l400 SWB) is sagging or if it is just an illusion because of the different heights of the wheel arches. Could somebody who is pretty sure their ride is running level tell me what the difference is between the height from the top of wheel to the bottom edge of wheel arch on the front wheel compared to the back wheel? Thanks.

Justy measure from the centre of your hub to the bottom of the arch, front and back. Should be equal.

Should they be equal? The top of the arch on the front wheel is parallel with a horizontal body line, and the top of the back arch is notably below it.... Should they be the same from that body line? Tried taking picture but camera not working.

Ideally this is the gap you need.

Hahaha, sorry, but yes they should be equal, the van should look level at least. I recommend a set of HD coils from CCA, I have some and they're lovely.
