Correct suspension ride height? U270

I am getting new air bags fitted to the front tomorrow (back are already done) assuming that the body is symmetrical I would think that measurements should be close for the ride hight.
Ground to bodywork / fender flare above wheel is
40.25" and 40.50" at the rear
and
40.50" and 42" at the front
Question is what should the ride hight measurement be and where should it be measured from?
Tire pressures are per the plate beside the drivers seat.
Thanks

Yup, recheck after bag installation with coach on level surface, engine on-- at least long enough to build full air pressure and in travel mode.

Merely installing air bags will not change ride height, but a tech could easily bump the ride height valve/rod during installation.
