    Its just terminology but it needs to be precise so that the discussion is properly understood. Raising the body off the sub-frames doesn't touch the suspension. The sub-frames aren't lowered as they are not closer to the ground - the body is lifted. Raising the suspension by using Llams or other means lifts the sub-frame above where it normally sits - the suspension is not lowered.

    Using Llams or other means to raise the suspension does not retain stock up/down travel even though the full travel is unchanged.

    You are correct.

    Lets maybe call them, Subframe spacers 6inch lift kit avail for D5! 35's Anyone?

    Say you did a 4inch Subframe spacer

    Then adjusted electronically the suspensions height to 1 inch lower than stock at normal height.

    All other electronic heights including off road are as per standard.

    This gives you a 3 inch lift on the freeway compared to the standard onroad normal height. (Safer and easier to engineer)

    It also gives you a 4 inch lift compared to the standard off-road height, when you really need the extra height for tyre clearance at top of your travel + greater obstacle clearance.

    This also gives you standard up and down travel in the off-road height setting as this height setting has not been touched electronically.

    The only thing you will lose is 1 inch of up travel on road.
