See the image below....I dropped my vehicle on these coilovers and I thought It was on lowest part(which makes vehicle higher), but it wasn't...My car looks like it's slammed, especially the rears.....any suggestions on what to raise? I'm looking for a 1.75(front) & 1.25(rear)......ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED!!!



1. HOW DO I RAISE THE FRONT COILOVER HIGHER? (Is it #1 OR #2?) and (Up or down?)

2. HOW DO I RAISE THE REAR COILOVER? (Is it #3 or #4?) and (Up or down?)

 

I believe it is #1 and #3. Turn them away from the spring, so the unit gets longer. I am going to install Ksports tomorrow night. Have you had any other problems with the install?

 

for the front turn number 1 down and number 2 up

for the rear turn number 3 down and number 4 up

 

1 & 3: Height Adjustment

2 & 4: Preload adjustment

 

it was an easy install....the only problem I encountered was the front brake lines, cause there wasn't a bolt to hold the lines...gotta use some zipties


as for adjusting, I guess I didn't adjust the top ones high enough...I adjusted the #1 & #3 low(about 2 lines from the bottom).....we'll see, I'll try to adjust them later on today...

 

Did you get the height problem fixed?

 

yeah, finally got them adjusted....what a pain in the azz....since I didn't want to take the full coilover off, it took me 4-5 times taking off each wheel and putting them back on, just to see the height adjustment....damn arthiritis is killing me...


ps: make sure you adjust them before putting on, otherwise....it's gonna kill your hand by the time your done....

 

How did you end up adjusting the height? Was it 1and 3 or 2 and 4?

 

Fronts:
if the coilover is already on the vehicle....loosen both #1's and loosen the botton #2....twist the top #2 clockwise...if the whole assembly moves with it, then do it until it reaches the bottom...after that, you tighten both #1's, and turn the top #2 counterclockwise to adjust the spring load....done

Rears:
follow the same thing as the fronts, except for the rears, they don't have (2) #3's...



hope that helps!
