    Tool to adjust Coilovers missing, any other way to adjust?

    So I have a broken spring and got a replacement in the other day. I have Koni coilovers on the car, but the guy that had the car before me didn't have the tool to adjust them with. Is there any other way of adjusting them so I can get the new spring on?

    If the spring is broken, there's most likely not going to be a whole lot of excitement if you just remove it. You may need to compress the new spring to get it on though if you're trying to preserve your alignment and not disturb the settings.

    if there off you should be able to use something to loosen the spindal nut. Depends on how seized up they are.

    you could figure some way out to turn them without the coilover wrenches imo. or just order a pair since you do have coilovers and sooner or later may want to change your ride height... i mean that is a main point to owning coilovers.

    ECS sells a set for $35, I'm sure there are others as well. Although, I am not 100% sure they are all universal, so I'd check that out before getting a pair.

    Thanks for the help. Hopefully I'll get the spring on this week.
