Adjusting rear rebound.

Looking at getting some Tein flex coilovers but don’t want to have to cut a massive hole to adjust the rebound. Is it worth getting the electric controller? Will the controller even fit in there?

Does anyone have this setup in their Ralliart?

Also for guys with extenders, where are your extenders coming out of? Did you have any issues feeding the extender through to the inside?


Thanks.

I used a drill bit for creating door knobs through metal doors. I measured up to where it needed to come out from and drilled a hole on each side and pulled it out and secured it. Make sure you secure it tight or you will hear the knob knock around on the metal everytime you go over a bump. You can get like a set of 3 bits at lowes or home depot. Just make sure you buy ones that cut through metal and wear some safety glasses.

no, not that I know of. I tried fitting my fingers through the top but can barely touch the knob. Couldnt turn it though. Not sure what everyone else did, but i did it this way so I can adjust it with ease. I messed up the first hole but the second one turned out better. Kinda ghetto but you cover it up anyway....

So if the extenders were longer do you think they would come out through that top hole?

Anyone have any pictures of how they did it?

I wish these coilover companies would make the rears adjustable from the outside of the vehicle like AGX shocks.
