the way its measured is a big PITA, i say set where you like it (or to clear speed bumps and what not), then get it realigned. anytime you change ride hight, the alignment is going to get a bit off.
i personally like the front low (well, the whole car low), but with stock control arms, alignments can become an issue---same with raising it too high.
Yeah, I've set the rise height before and the measurement is a wierd process but still pretty easy to do. My dad is doing it to his car back in Los Angeles and he asked me for the spec so I'm trying to get it to him so he can do it to his Swinger. I think I remember it being 1 3/8" so that's what I told him. I need to raise my Demon up just a little too for them speed bumps...more like like header bumps.
