    Adjusting front Coilovers

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    How do I go about adjusting my front coilovers (H&R's). I've got tools and everything just haven't done it before. I need to raise the front about 1/2 inch.

    Thanks in advance

    pretty much..there is a small wrench and a big wrench..easiest to put on a lift so you dont have to even take the rims off and its as simple as it sounds..just losten them and spin them down to raise it..thats..pretty sure there is only 2 so they tighten against eachother..thats how it went on my a6..measure ground to fender to get it exact

    Re: Adjusting front Coilovers

    jack the front of the car up and put it on jack stands, take the wheels off and turn the wheel all the way to the left to adjust the right coilover and all the way to the right for the left coilover. you will see what i mean about turning the wheel when you look at it.

    and then from there you loosen the locking collar and use the adjustment wrench to spin the other collar up. its going to take some effort, but it will budge.
