Thanks for bearing with me and for allowing me to hikack this thread…
When ‘blade’ is referenced I was thinking what I’m pointing to in the picture below but I think ‘blade’ actually refers to the part that rotates inside the LCA. Is that correct? That would now make sense.

Top picture is the blade, bottom Pic is the underside of the blade . Where they are suggesting you measure from.

I love the way your car sits. Mines a bit higher in the front. I can’t make up my mind how I like it. Front suspension has been rebuilt and waiting to get the alignment done.

I love the way mine sets with some rake but it don’t have much suspension travel in the front. I’m going to crank it up a 1/2” at a time until it doesn’t bottom out on this pothole at the house lol

Adjust the ride height to where you want it before getting alignment… and if you lower it a lot, check your clearances

I think the size of the bars can influence the comfort/ride height equation. I make adjustments 1/4 turn at a time.

With a couple bounces before re-measuring.
