As mentioned before, they are of three different sizes. I may have got mine in wrong, because once installed, the rear of the car is only raising and dropping about an inch, whereas before, it would raise and drop significantly more.

I can't think of anything else that I did wrong. I spent a while bleeding the system - drove car around (still in Limp Mode - new O2 sensors did not kick it out of Limp Mode - that's a different issue I'll post after posting all my new PICTURES!) turned wheel all-the-way LEFT, all-the-way RIGHT - many times until the wheel seemed to stop being un-powered at the point of coming to a stop.

So - do I remember correctly that someone else was going to take a Regulating Valve apart soon? Shogun, was that you? PLEASE make sure you know where each of the three different sized balls go, and LET ME KNOW! :)

You guys are great!
