[QUOTE="SB406, post: 554095, member: 3100"] The other ting to consider is where the drivetrain sits. To me, a little taller roof line and seat height doesn't make much difference in center of gravity height. But it makes a big difference in visibility and comfort. If you have a back seat, the rear upper links will make that desision for you, because you run out of moves real quick. My belly is about 21" Roof is 80" Wheelbase is 120" Transfer case is clocked flat and sitting 1/2" off the skid plate. 16" coilovers with 7 to 7.5" shaft showing. Figure you only really have 15" before the limit straps hit. I see guys building buggies with the seats on the skid plate and the drivetrain a foot off the belly. They look cool, but it makes me wonder. [/QUOTE]
