Reading what other EV builders have done and recommend I measured some things before removal of engine etc. Top pre-surgery procedures included the ride height at all 4 wheels, weight at each wheel and later engine and transmission position.
Left front= 26″ ground to fender above center of wheel
Right front= 26″ gfacw
Left rear= 26.5″ gfacw
Right rear= 26.25″ gfacw
Or
Left front= 7.5″ ground to jack points
Right front= 7.75″ gjp
Left rear= 7.75″ gjp
Right rear= 7.75″ gjp
E-Z Weight Scale
Weight at each wheel. I believe this is important to see how I did after batteries and etc is added compared to the before numbers. Also when ordering the new heavy duty rear coil springs (because of rear added weight of batteries) I will have a beginning point.
Using portable scales that stock car racer Richard Holmes let me borrow, 2270 pounds is the total weight with gas tank almost empty.
Left front= 697
Right front= 705
Left front= 436
Right front= 441
