Hmmm. Is there an upper bump stop in there? Can't really tell. If the adjusters are engaged with the suspension hanging down as far as it is in that first picture you may have an issue.
When you set the length of the adjustable strut rods did the suspension move freely through its range of travel?
You're getting very little suspension compression with that jack. While I would also like to see the car on the ground, if that picture is a good indication of how things are sitting now you may need to reclock the LCA's. Those are 1.00" bars?
Actually, the "certain point" where the car starts to be raised and not the suspension is the point where the load on the suspension is equal to the corner weight of the car. Meaning, the only reason that will be different from ride height is if the car is sitting higher in the front than the back (more weight than normal on the rear wheels). If the car is close to level, then the point where the whole car lifts is gonna be pretty darn close to ride height.
