OK, I'll chime in. Two full turns, did it myself and it took less than one minute. Didn't change the ride at all, raised the front about 1 1/4", almost level. Checked the alignment and it didn't change.

Here's the one thing I did notice that nobody mentioned or noticed yet. Between 40 and 50 miles per hour, with the sunroof open I get a tremendous air modulation. I wasn't sure if it was due to the change, so I lowered it back down and drove it and the modulation was gone. It changes the aerodynamics enough to cause some wind buffeting into the sunroof at a certain speed. Opening one of the back windows about an inch stops the problem.

Anyway, other than that one odd effect, I like the look much better, and it certainly didn't affect the way it handles on or off road.

Thanks for the good information. I made another 1/2 turn so I'm now at 2 1/2 turns and finally level. I really don't feel any diference but do have a alignment scheduled for next week. I'll check the sunroof situation although it is not going to be long since the testing is here in Pittsburgh and cold weather is upon us. Do you have a brush guard that helps create the wind disturbance?
