I agree that the coils weight rating is responsible for how the comfort level is going to be and that the size of coil used on the shock matters as well. The PSI load in the shock is going to determine that as well. Setting the Pre-load on the coils will determine the ride height as well.
If you use a longer coil and compress them on the shock, then tighten the compressing nut on the shock, it will give you added lift and depending on the # lb rating on the coils, the level of stiffness and height will also come into play.

Grab the lower spring seat and pull it towards the top of the shocks, it should slide up but it may be a pain in the ***. After that you'll see a snap ring that was hidden by the lower seat, take that off (just pops off) then slide the seat back down over the bottom of the shock past where it was originally at. reinstall is just the reverse, slide the seat up over where it sits, put the snap ring thing back on, and slide it back down. the snap ring is all that holds it up, odd i know.. i thought the same thing.
Don't worry about it, i dicked around with it for a few hours asking all my buddies what they thought, then finally one of my teachers figured it out.
DONT take that valve off unless you have a way to recharge it.
and your a ****in dick.

For the most part their adjustability. You can adjust for different ride heights and also adjust the dampening to improve handling. Second the shock absorbers internal valving, designed to be tunable for a particular vehicle to achieve the best ride characteristics for superior suspension under on road and off road driving conditions.
Optimally providing the user to dial in the ride of their vehicle. Oh yeah and I think there is a cool factor in there somewhere.
