1.disconnect knuckle and endlink.
2.spin the lower part of the coilover up to where u think you want it
3. re connect knuckle only.
4.put wheel back on take car off of jack. if its too low or too high repeat.
5. reconnect everything when done.(may need rack spacers if you go low enough

1) break the orange collar lose thats right above the part attached to the knuckle.
2) spin it the orange collar up to the distance you want it lowered
3) take the spanner wrenches and twist the whole coilover assembly down untill the orange collar is against the knuckle again.
4)Tighten orange collar to the part attached to the knuckle.

Repeat for the other side.
