i was sorta not on flat ground when i put the drivers side v8 emblem on but the passenger side is spot on as some folks say. its pretty funny that you mention that though.

i was driving around all day with it on 7 then when i got home i put it on 9 to see if i could drive around my neighborhood okay and it didn't seem like it lowered any going from 7 to 9. i was watching the valve screen and it did not noticibly lower on the controller valve screen or in real life. is this supposed to be this way?? also is there anything between 7-9 height and L?? i would like to drive if possible in something less than my 7-9 setting but higher than L. do any of the normal down settings look lower than the 7-9 in extra down mode, but higher than L??
