Hey guys, I just got my F2 type 1's yesterday and when i opened the box up, the bottom parts weren't very tight and they were at different settings.
Is this normal? Should I worry about the preload not being set correctly? The preload seemed to be mostly tightened. I was under the impression that the preload should be set out of the box.

Measuring from the bottom of the spring perch to the bottom of the lower locking ring it now sits a little above 3 and 3/4 inches. It was at 3 and I wanted to go to four but I don't know at what point it comes apart or becomes unsafe.
Anybody know? I'm really looking to avoid having to take one of them off the car just to measure it.
Also, If I increase the preload will that raise the car at all or just make it ride stiffer?
