Four hours later I'm up again and we just got back from a 4-5 mile run and WOW what a difference! Bottomed out once on a huge bump (as I would expect) but the rest was near perfect. Maybe bring the spanner up another 1/4" and call it done. Mamma was very happy. HAPPY WIFE= HAPPY LIFE!
Be careful. Coilover shocks have to have balanced (not equal, but balanced) up and down travel. Instructions usually remind you to check that - not just ride height.
