Well pretty much what it says in the title.

I bought my 89 Rex Si already lowerred on adjustable coils and Ive never had to adjust it, I bought lower profile tires and want to drop it down another 1/2 inch but dont know how or do I have the tools that I think these kits come with.

Can anyone tell me what I have to buy or even how to do it maybe with a pic when I get those tools?

Thanks

 

you need the spanner wrenches....I think thats what they are called....I've never seen them avaliable in re-sale.....just borrow someone else's....I had to do that with my last coils....now I bought new ones and have new wrenches.

 

http://www.harborfreight.com/ sells spanner wrenches.

 

My springs arent adjustable but Id love to learn how to raise or adjust them if they were

I adjust my ride height all the time and have never used a spanner wrench to do the job. What's different about these coilovers that requires a spanner wrench?

 

Well what do you use?

Is it only a matter of jacking the car up and turning something simple?
With a set of chanel locks?

Does anyone have a pic of exactly what you turn?

Well, I can only tell you how my coilovers work. All I need is an allan wrench to loosen the bolt (yellow arrow), then I can spin the perch freely to the desired height.

 

a sturdy screwdriver and hammer works to unlock the double jamnuts if you have any type of sleeves other than Ground Control. one big reason why GC rules.

 

i would like to know too, i can get those hook lookin things, but what exactly do u gotta do?, ive searched and this is wat i found

 

first u raise the car, then u use YOUR HANDS to raise the coilover or to lower it. dont really need tools unless its like tooooooooooooo hard to move
