Hers a couple of pics. Just finished setting the ride height. After about 50 miles my passenger front settled about 3/4". Will adjust tomorrow.

Post note: this is as low as you can go without tires rubbing in corners combined with hills, back country roads. When the front passenger side settled it did rub.

I am curious, do you need to time your bushings after installing coil-overs?

VI put Ridetech coilovers in along with new end links and ZL1 sway bar so yes I needed to time the bushings. Also put 100 miles on it before realignment to let everything settle out.
Last thing I need to do is adjust the headlights upward due to the lowering.

Did you roll the wheel well lip? If not, be careful hitting potholes or railroad crossings!

I'm confused. Do you have a 1le or 1lt? I was wondering because I thought it was hard to lower a 1le without having to do everything ☹
