i went to lower my car for the good weather ahead and i can't seem to get the sleeve to turn after i loosened the allen bolt. ground control doesnt have a tool to spin it so does anybody have any tips or suggestions for me? ive never had this problem before and appreciatte any help

 

I'm doing worse then you... I went to raise my car up a little for some 16s that I'll be putting on and couldn't get the allen bolt lose. So I ended up removing the whole assembly and after soaking the sleeve and allen bolt in wd40 for 30 minutes, STILL ended up with a stripped allen bolt head. So now I'm fucked... not sure what my options are, if any... the sleeve is made of pretty light weight aluminum, so I can't drill the bolt out... I don't suppose GC sells the sleeves individually or has any sort of warranty? Ish...

 

if you are changing the front or back, you have to make sure both front wheels are at even height, or both back wheels are at even height.

the sway bar restricts you from changing the height of the coilover because of the pressure going against it. was this the problem you were having?

 

i ended up finding a tool i used to change bike tires and kind of pulled the sleeve around with that and used a flat bar and lightly tapped it with a hammer...worked pretty good
