My car got lower for some reason over the last 6 months since I put the agx/ ground control suspension in. I aimed for a 1 finger gap after 1.5 inch drop on a 2000 civic with 15 inch wheels, but now it has no gap. Is it possible to adjust the coilover height while it's still installed? I have my car jacked up right now and the colt is loosened, but it seems like down force from the spring is preventing it from moving. I was trying a flat head and a hammer to move it, but it was scratching the coilover while only moving it millimeters.

 

i have the same problem with the same set up and i belive the sleeveovers slw lower them selves so i just raise it up a notch ar so once every 6 mounts or so

 

I'm wondering if anyone knows why my car keeps dropping stupidly low? at 1.25 inch drop it was 1 finger gap for like 4 months then went to 1/2 finger barely scraping, then scraping on all hard turns and dips. I raised it to 1 inch drop and it came out as 2 finger gap, the next day it was 1/2 finger gap and scrapes with passengers. I have a 2000 civic EX. besides rolling your fenders (which I don't know how to do) what else can I do? I'm considering putting a 0 drop (supposedly stock) and letting it drop from there to whatever height it is... probably 1 finger or if it's stupid enough, 1/2 finger.

 

is the adjuster on the sleeve moving at all?
sounds like you didnt tighten the screw down enough?

 

It's weird, I actually measured the coilover adjuster to 1 and 1/2 inch drop, but i measured it 2 months ago at 1 and 1/4 drop. and it's still lower. I made sure it didn't move. and at the last adjustment, i screwed it totally shut, like the ring was totally closed. the shocks are still working. it's only my front ones too, the back is still a little over 1 finger gap at 1 1/2 inch drop. the springs on my front are kinda scraped, so im thinking maybe it gets compressed alot? The space between each coil on the spring looks a little under an inch right now with the car sitting on them. Don't know how they would compress so much since they're eibach performance springs.
