[DeTomaso] 1974 Pantera stock ride height

[jderyke at aol.com]

Jim, according to your Tech Service Bulletin #4, article 27, it was 7.28" in front and 6.39" at rear, by the odd way DeTomaso/Ford measured. This was from the center of the inner, lower rear a-arm bolt to the ground. It also was for a stock '73-'74 Pantera with the headlight height shims in the front & rear springs and with 185-70 x 15" front tires and 205-70 x 15" rear tires mounted. The specs also mention having two persons of 154 lbs weight ea, in each seat and a 1/2 tank of fuel in the tank while checking wheel geometry & vehicle trim.
