1) Approximately where should the bottom spring perch be set initially at on the shocks so that I can retain my current height I have (25.5" all around, top of fender to ground)

I've done the full install myself when I upgraded years ago to H&R springs and Bilstein shocks - so I'm all set with the straight forward swap of the parts.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I'm going to be installing a new PSS9 suspension on my 01 C2 Cab this winter. I've done the full install myself when I upgraded years ago to H&R springs and Bilstein shocks - so I'm all set with the straight forward swap of the parts. I wanted to find out a couple things around setting the height for the folks who did the install and ride height setting themselves... 1) Approximately where should the bottom spring perch be set initially at on the shocks so that I can retain my current height I have (25.5" all around, top of fender to ground) 2) As you fine tune the height to get everything pretty much equal, do you have to jack to car up, take the wheel off, and then adjust? or is there a way to do this without taking the wheels off? 3) Is there anything else thats 'different' when installing the PSS9 vs aftermarket spring/shock combos?? Thanks in advance, Will

You're gonna have to just use trial and error to get the car where you want it to sit. Yes you've gotta take the wheels off each time to adjust height. Also it's better if you measure from the Chassis pickup points for accuracy. https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...ht=ride+height
