Does this gower or raise the height? I thought it would lower it but my shop is saying it actually raised it a bit. Rides great but now I have a gap. Anyone running this? I have 18/19 setup.
 
Best thing to do is to take a picture of the Bistein strut and make sure the perch is installed the proper direction.

The perch must be installed correctly (not upside-down) and the keeper for the lower perch installed on the lower setting.
I put on Bilsteins, set at the lower perch height with stock springs. The ride is still very compliant, although a bit stiffer and the ride height is about an inch lower. Looks great and still rides comfortably.
