Total it cost me around $2600 for everything. Lines, fittings, controller, valves, welding, metal sheets, tank, compressors, water traps, power wires, fuse box, remote wire, optima battery, and fuses.

To adjust the front, turn the steering wheel completely to one side (let say you start off with turning right) You will now to be able to access the right sensor without removing your tires. I had the same question when I first started and here is an image of what the rod looks like. (should be in position #1 to lower it) The rod is double sided. Twisting it in one direction will "expand" the sensor, while the other will contract it, thereby lowering the sensor lever. However, even at the lowest, it may not suit your taste so you may have to cut about 1/4-1/2" off each side of the rod to give you a bit more lowering. Also note there is a locking nut on the top and bottom of the rod you need to loosen before twisting to adjust. Some others have fabricated their own rod. I tried but could not find a reverse treading die (the clockwise die is easily found). Once you figure out how easy it is, it will take you only seconds to access and adjust as needed.



The rears are even easier. Just crawl under the back wheels and you will see an adjustment bar one each side. Loosen the 10mm bolt and slide the sensor down. Tighten and you are ready to go.




This is important. It takes time for the compressor to adjust the height. Just wait a minute or two to see the result, it is not immediate. I think the lowering is a bit faster than the lifting but still slow.

Good luck.

I tried setting them to halfway between normal and low and same thing.

I know the 680 has the lead that connects to the speed height under the glovebox in the 04-06, most people go without hooking it up though from what I've noticed. I didn't hook mine up when I installed my 680, which I am selling now. Hope this helps.
