Nope, I followed a method for getting them adjusted "properly".
It goes something like jack up the front end, both sides.
Take off wheels.
Adjust endlinks as far down as possible without hitting the suspension, plus a little room (a few mm).
Tighten adjustable ends back up.
Put everything back together, and slowly let the car down verifying clearances (should clear with ease).
Boom! Done.
