I installed new Elka Shocks but did not measure correctly, the height of the rear fender at it's lowest ' point '. IF any one has a measurement and at what suspension setting, I use the middle bar, it would be appreciated. TIA. Is it possible to put too much preload, causing the compressor not to run, or do I have other issues? I think the compressor is trying to run, I hear is a " click" every few seconds but haven't had time to check it out fully and SyyderQuest is coming soon. I did disconnect the sensor prior to removing the shock, and the compressor did operate normally for about a week, but I added a few turns spring preload and now it doesn't run.

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Just my measurements
On our 2014 RTL, where the compressor has now been replaced twice, I gave up and use the fill port under the seat. Be that as it may......I put 70 PSI in the bag and measurement from floor to the bottom of the fender at it's center point I measure +/- 16". When I had checked it before with only 50 PSI in it, I was seeing +/- 14.5". As I recall from the replacements, the lowest to highest settings if done by the book, give a total range of about 2" height, measured along the body right side just in front of the floor foot rest on an RTL. This shows in the service manual also under "setting the height adjustment in BUDDS (if necessary). Just FYI from me. Hope this helps.
