Hey guys, my bud and I just adjusted my suspension and I wanted to run it by you guys what we did. We basically measured the distance between the coilover (Ground-Control) and the KONI Yellow shock which was measured by the distance of the thread on the sleeve between the two. My question is we adjusted the sleeve clockwise which was the direction of "up" on the sleeve itself it said this. Was this the correct thing to do to lower the car more, since we basically compressed the spring more which gave less travel to the shock? I figured I'd ask before I started driving it tomorrow. Thanks

God bless,
Mike

 

Are you sure that we lowered it? Additionally, when I got the car on a flat surface I looked at it and it didn't seem to look like there was much of a difference (We didn't compress the spring too much). Is this due to the fact that the coilovers need a few days to settle down from the adjustment? Thanks

Is the perch the gold ring thing that raises up and down? If so, then I raised that up so I guess I raised my car rather than lowering it. However, I was under the impression that by raising the ring that would be lowering more since I'd be compressing the spring more, additionally...I thought this because there's so much room to go up on the sleeve then it is to go down. So I figured that by going up would lower the car more for some reason, since my Koni's/GC coilovers can be lowered up to 3.5". And ive only lowered it 2.25 so far, so I did I actually raise or lower the car?

Thanks,
Mike

 

you raised it...to lower it the perch has to sit lower on the collar.

 

So essentially I was supposed to lower this more -



and I wasn't supposed to raise it on the sleeve? So by raising the yellow ring (Guessing that's what the perch is) I raised the height? I just don't get why that's so because I have so much room to go up and very little on the sleeve to go down.

Thanks

 

GC makes it easy for you with up and down clearly labeled on the perch itself.

what perch are the yellows on since they have adjustable perches? also are you sure you have the front and rear coilovers correct?
