What does this mean? Is stock 1? 5? 10? How does someone compare a number (9.5) to a word (stock)?

Got them used so cant really speak to what settings were out of the box...camt remwber exactly how low i went but will try to find my notes...fairly easy to adjust fronts...rears are a bit of a challenge given the limited room to get the special adjustment wrench in there but manageble.
