IMPORTANT lowering question
When the front is being lowered the goal is to have the bushing touching the leaf spring? or to have as big a gap as possible between the bushing and the leaf spring? :confused: Car is on jacks right now :cheers:

Turn the bolt counter clockwise until you can't turn it anymore. Then you will know the bushing is hitting the spring ;)
