When you get your coilover suspension on you measure again to decide how high or low to raise that part of the car. Move the collar up or down the corresponding height (hopefully you wrote this all down).
Roll the car back and forth to settle the car. Measure again and adjust accordingly. Not really rocket science. Then go get an alignment.
When I measure what kind of measurements will I be looking for? Will I be able to find out how much the car has been lowered?
