quick ride height question?
 
Is the ride height supposed to be adjusted without anybody in the car? I notice when I am in, the left side compresses 1/4" lower than the left side. does this effect the corner weight loading? 81'SC

Yes, without people in the car. And 1/2 tank of fuel. I'm puzzled how the *left* side is lower than the *left*. http://www.pelicanparts.com/ultimate/smile.gif

Lagoon,
here is a standard checklist to perform before a ride height adjustment:

full fuel tank.
proper tire pressures.
center steering wheel/rack.
150 lbs. in each front seat.
"bounce" vehicle a few times to settle suspension.

Freefly, I have found that you end up sitting a little too high with this method. And if you set it up this way with a full tank of fuel, it seems nose high with a low tank. Half tank is a nice medium. Just my personal preference.
