Hi guys
Just a quick question. What is the legal ride height for a vehicle in Victoria? Is it still "the lowest part of the vehicle under load must not be lower than 100mm"? Cheers

It is more complex than that.
You also need to retain atleast 2/3rds of the suspension travel between each item of suspension and its associated bumpstop. There is also a wheelbase related component for the midpoint; Wheelbase[m] x 33.33 = minimum clearance [mm] |

in adelaide, they give you a minimum height measured from centre of hub to guard. maybe give vic roads or applicable source and see if you can get some specs off them.
