Can changing AGX settings affect amount of drop ?

last week before the blizzard i was playing around with my settings on my AGX and set the front from 2 to 3, and i noticed at the end of the day that the gap seemed a lil bigger...the stiffness increased so perhaps its pressuring the spring to not compress/settle as much? has anyone else ever had this happen? if i set the springs on 1, will the drop be more? i have B&G springs
can the stiffness/support of the struts affect how much the springs settle or raise?
my friend has tokico's with his B&Gs and his car is definately lower than mine...his springs are really clanked together, they settled way differently...wuts the deal with this? he's an auto and doesnt have any system in his car or anything to add additional weight

No, changing the damping of the shock will not affect ride height. It must be either imagined or something else that caused it.

it might affect the drop, but the difference would be very minimal

maybe he had a coil cut off? did he purchase his springs used?
