I can't remember the correct way to raise the ride height?, if looking at the front of the tyre which way do I turn the adjusters front and rear?

To the right mate

Up the way

Thanks.

So you compress the spring when you turn to right? If so doesn't that mean you will lower it?

Thanks.

No, compressing the spring means its getting smaller which means your winding it up. If you loosen it the spring will get bigger meaning your winding it down

I thought compressing the spring lowers it? Getting smaller so closer to the floor? Saying that iv never adjusted any lol.

Back to front with that.

Huh..?

So most of you are saying compress the spring to raise the hight of coilovers?!

If you are looking on top of the adjuster you spin the top one anti-clockwise/higher up the leg to raise the car. People are saying compressing the spring but you dont actually compress it as the damper shaft will move out further aswell to counter act the spring. So up to go up and down to go down and everything moves with it keeping the spring at the correct compression, unless you top or bottom the dampers out on adjustment but there shouldnt be that much adjustment to do that.

Not most of us, its just the right way.

Cheers lads and joe.

Do I raise up the rear cog things too?

Seems the rears don't have much adjustment at all?

Anyone im doing this now

Cheers

Yer same way to raise the rear up mate.

Thanks joe the rears don't seem to have much adjustment they are equal at the back but one side needs raised by 15mm the top of adjuster and base are just over flush with the top of each other so don't want hardly any thread left on the adjustor base!

Car feels a little less crashy note which is good.
