FWIW the front and rear fender height is dead smack on stock ride height - though I'm not really pleased with the amount of 'spring' in the hitch as the setup rode in this picture, I've already tried removing a link from the tensioned side - found it too taught - bar angles aren't ideal either as described (too tight to frame). I've got a good amount of adjustment left at the ball - I'll kick the ball back a notch and retry with the original link count (6 or 7 on the tensioned side I believe, 1 link floating regardless).
