This may help, i think i have mine set at about 15 clicks from soft all round.
I find it difficult to measure from chassis to floor to set the ride height especially when its not totally flat.

If someone has standard bilsteins it would be nice to get a measurement from floor to wheel arches just as a guide.

Which ones are they, I'm still on my original billies and they are almost 20 years old now. All I've done is replace the bushes.
