Unfortunately, the only way I have found to adjust ride height (lower is what I
assume you mean), is to either change the pickup points of the A-arms
or to install shorter springs. I am using GT6 front springs with 2 coils
removed and it rides about right for autocross use. The rear can be lowered
by either de-arching the rear spring or by placing a spacer between the spring
and its perch on top ot the differential.
The shock adjustment will have no affect on ride height.
SPAX makes an adjustable perch front shock, but unfortunately, the adjustments
are all to raise the height. The lowest adjustment is the same as what
is used on the factory shock.
