Default TB Lift

First post on this forum, new owner of an 06 H3. I hated the cat in heat stance so I did some research on cranking up the TB's. Worked great, I turned the passenger side 2.5 turns and had to turn the drivers side 3.25 turns to level the car. I never have liked the feel of the front end, now with it raised it seems more crisp. The total amount raised is about 2.5 inches. looks much better! I know this is old news to some, but it's new to me. The alignment is unchanged. Very happy with the change!!!

Welcome and thanks for your input.

The alignment may not of changed as it seems..but it did..if you don't have it re-aligned soon, you will begin to notice more wear on the tires on the outside edge of the tread...

I did have it checked...there was no change needed. Sounds strange, but is true!

Welcome to our Forum!

Did you have the dealer check the alignment, or a specialty shop?

Thanks for the welcomes.

A specialty shop checked it.

SIG as in signature, not SIG as in boom!
