Mines sitting at 2-1/2". Only things I have done to the suspension is 4 link the rear, big bore shocks, Axial BTA steering.

I run mine at 2.5" or lower. Just depends on your rocks. I've been on some jagged stuff and wished I was a touch taller.

I like mine @ 2.75" But if you got tall tires, like Rovers, I would say 2.5"

Mine with Rovers is sitting at 2-7/8" and is working really well, give me enough ground clearance to get over most stuff and still side hills well to...

A couple of pics from the other day with it's current set up

I run right around 2 1/2 to 2 5/8 for belly clearence. I feel that it gives me a much more stable set up, and I just employ other methods to cope with sharp break overs.

2 5/8" to 2 3/4". Any less and breakovers are tough. Any more and sidehilling gets tough.

As low as your courses will allow.

Thanx for all the responses. I am plannin on finishing off my electronics and test mid week, but I feel much more confident about my ride height. Before I was at 2 1/2" and got hung up alot. That should not be a problem anymore.
