from the looks on pics, the ride looks pretty nice at what it is dropped at. I have my ride probably dropped a bit lower than yurs and am considering just raising it .5 inch higher or so. kinda missed that smooth soft ride quality.

not too worried about it being a smooth ride, i have my dampening set at 22 clicks from the softest in the front and 20 from the softest in the rear, i would probably for 1/4" in the front and 1/2" in the rear, and go 24 in the front and 22 rear
