exactly what you said BUT with you or a buddie who weighs as much as you in the drivers seat. If you dont have a buddy just open the drivers door all the way, and adjust.
i have tried top and bottom hole big debate on which hole works best...top hole harder hit to tires and lower hole softer hit.
wheelie guys seem to like the bottom hole.
Good Luck,

Every car will like a different setup. Mine worked best with about an 1/8" gap (meaning no preload) and with the force transfer link in the bottom hole.

How many passes did it take you to figure that out.?
Alot of us throw them on, set em with high hopes, first time out. I DID.....
Seat time and alot of adjusting is the only way to know. Test and Tune.
