RTABs and lowered cars

^I think Ill do the same.

...................
The other thing I suspect that has been overlooked by almost everyone with OE RTABs and a lowered ride height;

The OE RTABs are supposed to be installed w/o preload.
Lowering the suspension will add preload to the RTAB and should be adjusted out.
The OE RTABs flex the rubber as the suspension moves through its travel.
It should be in a neutral (non-flexed) position with the car at rest.

Anyone running aftermarket bushings this would not apply because they rotate.
