i have my back jacked up and my tires off, and im having a hard time gettin the back right side up.... any help would be great!i have the wrenchs provided by h & r but which one do i put up? and which one goes where??

 

raise the spring higher. Slide the adjusting perches up.

* make sure that they are the same on both sides

 

does the spring have to be compressed???? because i tried and it wasnt budging, and i've had them on for 8 months

 

you can do it put your back into it!

 

you are supposed to clean them first then use the supplied lubricant to make it easy.

i can do it no problem. just make sure you get all of the dirt out of the threads, i have had them since Nov, and driven through snow rain, dirt roads etc just a good cleaning.

and yes you can do it when they are on the car.

bring the bottom spring perch (locking bolt) down a little then bring the top spring perch up to adjust the height (or vice versa to lower)

 

new to coilovers and ill be doing this soon. so for the H&Rs, you unlock/bring down the bottom lock perch, and to lower the height of the car you also bring the top perch down towards the bottom perch?

 

yes and yes

 

thx dave, i'm so excited

i took off my tein sticker today lol

 

lol niice

 

thanks and now i hear i need a camber kit from my mechanic guy??? is this true?

 

^ if you drop it more than 2 inches, you'll probably need rear camber links yeah.

 

aight ya i ordered front and rear camber kit

 

there's a front camber kit now?

 

they are just longer camber bolts for the front struts, lets you add/remove about 2 more degrees of camber over the stock bolts. eibach makes them as does SPC.

 

ah alright.

 

yea they are just the 2 bolts that connect the strut to the steering knuckle. they arent longer they just have a "bump" in them that induces or reduces camber.
