Why Consistent Droop Matters

Setting the down travel to equal values at each corner reduces unpredictable chassis behaviour and helps the car feel more stable under braking and cornering. The gauge supports repeatable adjustments for better setup control.

Each marked step equals half a millimetre, allowing you to make small, measurable changes to down travel which is useful for fine tuning handling balance.
Yes, it is suitable for a variety of chassis types; just ensure you have access to the suspension arm to take consistent readings.
It speeds up the process of matching droop values and provides a clear reference, so you can make faster, more confident adjustments during setup sessions.
Measure with the car at consistent ride height, use the same reference points on each corner, and repeat measurements after any suspension changes to confirm results.
