For those with the above setup, just how close to being as high as the factory ride height does this combo come, given the sometimes 'added ride height' of the Bilstein gas charged monotube dampers (even though some on here claim this to NOT be the case with the Bilsteins)?

If it is still MUCH lower than the factory setup, how much do the Powerflex tallest spring pads add to the rear ride height, and the same for those top mount spacers for the front (I cannot find the post about these)?

I'd be curious to hear the answers to these questions as well. Hopefully someone has some insight?

I don’t have the top mount spacer but I have everything else (Swifts with B6) in this thread. I have two fingers in the rear and one finger in the front. I hope that helps.

That would be way too low a ride height for my needs/uses. [:(]

I am going to try and find that thread mentioning the height adding top mounts, and then research a weight jacker for the rear Swift springs, IF I ever go this route. [wink]
