yes and no,..
1/2" in the rear and going to adjust to 3/4" up front to try out..

Update: I may have to re-adjust the collar....Mechanic says to turn collar upwards to lower height..This correct??..I turned collar 2 turns upwards in wanting to drop the fronts only...Will let it go since its easy to readjust,..but will get back to it this week if turning collar down 4 turns will ldrop the height like I intentionally wanted to..
Took measurements and it was 25.5." from ground to top of wheel arch...I figure I gotta give it a couple days to settle, but the passanger side looks the same height if not 1/8" lower. The driver side is oddly 1/4" higher. Not sure if jacking up and doing the driver side last has anythign to do with the difference in height at this time (adding weight and compressing the passanger side since I jacked up and completed the driver side last.)

This is with driving for 2 days after install...yesterday and today...
