From: I see what you did there.

The shock body does not have an adjustment for height. It has dampening adjustments, which have little to no affect on ride height.

Re: (Eran)

The only way to adjust ride height is if you have a shock with adjustable shock body perches or a coilover-spring setup.

Adjusting the dampening I.e. stiffness of the shock won't affect height.
