I installed my TEIN Basic Coilovers about 2 months ago on 17 inch wheels, but I recently got my 15 inch wheels today and I want to tweak the height again. Problem is, I don't remember where I put the manual to adjust the coilovers haha. Does anyone know how to loosen the coilovers and which way to adjust them to lower the car? I think I have to lower the bottom ring to make it lower, but I'm not too sure. Help please

 

loosen the bottom ring and adjust with the top one

 

Seriously? It's far from rocket science.

Just screw the perches down.

I actually can't believe someone asked this.

 

Sir, step away from the vehicle.

 

hahahaha. well use a hammer

 

Not sure if real or not.

 

Yes. It is. Such is the level of posts we get now.

 

I'm not going to lie... It's gotten really, really bad. It's now to the point where people that actually know what they're talking about just stay away, and the people answering tech questions are in NO position to do so. Soooooo much misinformation being spread around.

Also, if I see one more thread about "how wide of wheels can i fit" from some idiot that ordered 9 inch wide wheels before doing any research, I might just have to kill myself.

And the coilover questions. OH THE COILOVER QUESTIONS.


It makes me sad.

 

Are you implying I don't know what I'm talking about? !!

 

this

seems to fluxuate over the years, but this summer has reached a new all-time low.

 

But what about the preload?

 

 

I try to never post unless I know something about the subject, or if it is three in the morning and I am zombie posting lol.

 

The KILLER about all this is that the PDF can be found right on the Tein website.

Since the OP couldn't be bothered to even tell us what car he drives I just posted up a random link.

People. If you don't know how to operate something that you bought, and that goes for non-car related stuff too, dontcha think it would be best if you checked the manufacturers website first thing?

 

On an internet where people can't even spell (and don't think that it's a big deal), are you really surprised that they can't do any research on their own either?

Further proof that our school system and parenting system has deteriorated to uselessness.

Maybe I've just been in spending too much time in the engine management forum reading threads about tunning v-tech.

 

lol v-tech, Don't they make toys? I hate when people spell it wrong. Good one.
