There's 2 springs, and each spring moves 1 inch for every 200lb, so if you add 400lb, it drops 1 inch. They're just providing the basic math of spring rate vs load. The measurements tell us the max height I believe - but not the minimum height or the range of adjustment. Visually it looks like about 1" or 1.5" of height adjustment. So my guess is that you can go anywhere from 0.5 to 2" height adjustment with the 200lb springs, and then down from there based on additional load.

All of the springs are probably the same unsprung height. That's why the stiffer springs sit higher with the empty 4Runner.
So to clarify... the adjuster is 1.5" of height adjustment, so:

Unloaded height of system - 1.5" = minimum installed height.

for example: 200lb kit - 1.5" = +0.5" lift at max low setting with no load.

does that help?
