How to adjust coilovers for dummies.
-start out with coilovers already on the car
-jack up the car
-remove tire
-remove the lower bolt (so the lower mount is not attatched to anything)
-have someone step on the rotor so you have slack to adjust
-twist c
-twist b
-move to desired height
-lock c and b
-put on the lower bolt
-put on tires
-lower jack
-done.. if you still dont get it something is wrong with you. dont overthink it

The other way just confuses the hell out of people.. this way is dummy-proof. Both get the job done

Thanks johnson... Is it alot of work to remove the lower bolt?

No, 14mm socket and ratchet

You may need an air wrench to do this. That bolt can get pretty tight in there.


Why is this thread 6 pages long? The issues were fully explained on the second page


@chriskarel and jdmwhatever- if you guys were simply looking at one of your coilovers while reading the before-mentioned posts, you would see that the responses were logical and easy to follow. If you are such noobs at doing this then you need to do one of 2 things.

A) have a friend who knows what they are doing help you or,
B) pay a shop to do it and ask if you can watch and ask questions as they do it

I don't know who crapped on Mario Lopez's eggs this morning, but we're just trying to get it right. You were a noob once too.

Yes, everyone was a noob once. Some just need more help the others. Now that out of the way...i believe the idea on how to adjust coil-overs has been explained right?? I believe even FF was emailed for instructions as well???

Hence mods/admins lets close before we go to more pages of the same stuff being posted over and over and over.
