Adjusting Coilovers

[BioHzrd]

So this is prob the 5th thread with me on about something to do with coilovers so ne way about to take the plunge and buy a set for the Mk3 at the end of the month but want to know after getting them fitted and set up at a Garage how hard is it to adjust the height yourself ??? is it more of a specialist thing to door is it a case of using C Spanner and losning it up ???

Cheers :boring:

everytime you change the height you'll screw up the alingment

fit them, set the ride height you want, get the alingment done

LEAVE IT

Fred is right, even if u change it by 1 or 2 turns you mess it up, i raised my ledas 3 turns and had to get mark fish to set the toe again.

i fitted new wheels with different size tyres and a different offset to my 182 and the tracking has gone tits up, i just havnt had time to go get it set.

Id say fit them, set height, let it settle and then check the height again before getting the alingment done.

Ok so get em fitted let them settle and go from there and dont even bother adjusting them myself

To save starting yet another thread How long and How much would i be looking at to install them ??? Im asuming its a good few hours work
