Default how to adjust adjustable

yea seems to me that my back right part is about a finger higher than all the other sides.

its a ksport full coiloverl and when i tried adjusting it, i could only move the bottom bolt freely, the secure bolt. I cant move the top one, I didnt take off the wheel to do this nor did i jack the car up, do i have to take off the wheel? what am i doin wrong.

On my skunk2 adj c/o sleeves I have to adjust them with the two "sickle" shaped keys/wrenches that came with them and I usually take the wheel off and raise the car to gain more access and relieve the weight from the shock/springs. I don't know how ksports work, but maybe its still applicable?

I was replacing my battery and dropped the nut that tightens the terminal into the frame down there somewhere. Never EVER was able to retrieve it. Been almost a year now. The rattle of that nut drives me insane!!!!!!
