Derek - When you need to raise the rideheight for a smaller tire you move the shims from directly underneath the knuckle to directly above the knuckle. The clips always stay between the upper and lower arms. We've found about 3.35 - 3.75mm ride height be be optimum. If you have the option of 4mm or 3mm, chose 4. The car will begin to rub at 3mm.

Dakrat - Thats what I was just describing if you hadn't caught on yet. What we use are the 1mm kwik klips Schumacher makes or the Xray 1/8" clips work well also. You just move the clips on the kingpin to adjust ride height. You can actually change ride height without removing the front tires . Sure beats removing those enormous screws on an AE front end .

Jeeze... is it turkey day already , I better get to sleep .
