I always made any adjustment on my ladder bar car with weights in the drivers seat that was equal to my own weight. That way the bars were adjusted as the car would normally sit ready to race. I would set any pre-load the same way.

I looked through that.........
"raising the front of the bar DECREASES the "hit' ? Really , I thought it was the other way around....
Raising the front of the bar INCREASES hit , lowering puts more "squat" in the car and LESS hit.........or so some think.
