Rocker measurement and angles?

I'm trying to figure out the correct spacing and height of this rocker... any help? How wide is the weather stripping gap suppose to be? How far below the floor it is suppose to drop off? I know that the front of mine needs to some down 3/16" or so...

I have the door installed and the gaps aren't bad. The front needs to come down about 1/8 - 3/16" or so.

His door is installed. He is asking about the inside gaps.
