Larry,

Yes I do and yes, we compromised four corner ride height a little for better cross corner balance. I hated how the car looked with 50/50 cross corner balance due to the right rear being much higher than the left rear, so we dropped it and readjusted.

We didn't get it perfectly balanced (thanks to the fuel tank on the drivers side...) and tried to stay with a reasonable ride height on the four corners.  A 49/51 split is not bad to me. I'm really happy with the car weight WITH me in it and at least a half a tank of gas. See attached picture. All of my lightening efforts have paid off. I think the car is right around 2800 lbs now with fluids, fuel and AC that blows cold air.
