Default Dumb question?

I changed the O ring on my clutch arm due to a small leak. After I put it back, I noticed that it's a little higher than the foot brake arm on the right side. Is it supposed to be the same height or is it normal to be higher? Please advise.

If you're talking about your shifter arm, you can clock it however it's most comfortable. If it was level with your brake lever before then you've simply rotated it on the spline when reinstalling it. Just pop it off, rotate it a tick or 2.
