lol.......... far less than a module that runs the car at full load level that is rock hard, you can adjust the links to lower the car 10mm 15mm etc 2014 5.0SC AB

I had the lowering links in my RRS and took them out. The problem I had was when you reduce the height in standard mode you lose access mode ride height. So you will only have 2 ride heights standard and offroad. I just couldn't get the the access height to work. What happended is when you lowered it from standard to access the car thought is was bottoming out and immediately went to offroad height. You can't reduce just one of the ride heights you reduce them all, therefore if you lower it 20mm in standard you also lower the access and offroad height by the same amount. Lowering the access height by any amount will mean the car defaults to offroad height as it thinks it has gone too low (which it has).

You can't go too low if you want to maintain any comfort either, as said I initially put the links low as I could and Censored me was it a hard ride. This was slightly lower than access. I wanted to maintain the access height when it was parked up but you can only lower it very slightly to maintain the comfort so I though sod it, leave it as it is.

i agree the most you can really go is 10-15mm so not really worth it , i would rather have comfort than pose value 2014 5.0SC AB

Sorry about that cant pc crashed and pasted the messages twice.

I know a couple of ppl who have put it in the lowest mode and took the air suspension fuse out but the ride over bumps is terrible and a good chance of the shocks getting damaged!
