d2 coilover questions

is anybody riding on d2 coilovers? i just got mine in the mail today and seen that the rear shock body is not threaded to adjust ride height...is the only way to adjust rear height is by turning the locks all the way down on the spring load???

you can only adjust the locking rings on the springs not on the actual shocks.

i spoke to someone from d2 today...he told me something about the geometry of our suspension led them to design the coilover without the threaded shocks on the rear...sick right now not sure how much of a drop im gonna get on the rear. and i know im gonna lose comfort...i'll let you all know how it rides once i dump it LOL

What is the height of your springs on the coilover?

You'll still be able to tuck the rear, how low do you need to go...

The shocks are adjustable for ride. I used all the D2 parts but used Ebach lowering springs in the rear instead of the D2s and worked out very well
