Default GC coilovers and KYB shocks. GC wont adjust

My car is too low. It scrapes like a bitch. I tried adjusting the ride height but it wouldnt twist or budge. I loosend it up with the allen wrench and tried twisting it. I twisted the thing so hard the whole coil began to move in the direction I was turning. Anyone deal with this before? Its a bitching changing oil on this thing cuz its so low.

Try washing out the rungs real good and then giving it a try. You may have to hold the sleeve I know I do when I adjust mine. Your lucky though I had 2 of my allen bolts rust in there and I had to heat the damn things up for a good 15 minutes and finally I got it loose. Just keep working at it and it will come.
