HB Racing off-road ride height gauge

HB Racing have introduced their new off-road ride height gauge for 1/10th and 1/8th vehicles. The design offers two modes for measuring, the standard setting uses a thumbscrew to lock the ride height setting of the gauge, allowing racers adjust the ride height until it matches the desired value. The Active Measurement Mode uses the precise weight balance of the measurement arm so that racers can loosen the thumb screw and slide the tool under the car. The measurement arm pivots on dual ball bearings, and it will touch the bottom of the chassis and show the ride height in real time as it is moved under the car. The tool is machined from aluminium and it comes with a hard anodised surface for durability. The height markings are laser- etched for quick and easy adjustment and the measurement arm can be unscrewed for compact storage.
