![]() I think there are only 2 sizes for coilovers; either 1.9" or 2.25".
Most likely yours will be the 1.9" unless you specified 2.25" when you bought them.Plenty of c spaners on Ebay or Rally design. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/COILOVER-C...item3f182728aa Last edited by ozzy1 : 11th June 2012 at 09:16 AM. |

![]() Are there any guidence notes on how to adjust the Protech shocks - how to adjust, which direction etc. With the tyre pressures at 18 psi the ride is still a bit hard for road use but I dont know where to start with adjusting the shocks.

![]() If there is only the one adjusting ring then there will be a grub screw to lock the ring against the thread.If you lower the platform the spring is sat on this will lower the car,hence raising it will raise the ride height of the car.There is usually a small adjuster on the lower part of the shock also,this will have a + and - on it and usuallyi would go through the full range and count the number of clicks.Then back it off to half of the clicks and use this as a starting point.If your ride is still harsh after adjusting it to the minimum you will likely need to change the springs for some softer ones.

![]() Thanks Ozzy, so the C spanner is used on the main body of the shock to raise or lower ride height and some types will also have a second adjuster on the lower body of the shock to adjust the damper rate ?

![]() The C spanner will fit the notches in the lower spring platform which u can raise or lower.The adjustable knob with + and - will adjust bump and rebound.
