Davey001 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Hey Mate, I recently bought a set of tein coilovers from Chris Wilson which iam also fitting tomorrow and these have a small adjuster on the top of the strut. Doesnt look there like is anything like that on them! Weird!! Maybe they have been removed to stop adjustment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davey001 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Sorry mate, hope someone comes on here and tells you different! I know nothing about HKS coilovers to be fair. You should return these if its true tho! You pay much for them? I feel bad now!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey. Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 no not as much as the teins. i want to end up with a bilstein setup by chris anyways. just bought these to tad me over for the minute. i will let you know how stiff they are set at tomorrow. fingers crossed not too stiff:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey001 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I hope the best for you mate! You may well still be able to adjust these without the screws or buy a new threaded hex head stud to fit them for pennies. Dont loose hope and let me know tomorrow what they are like!

Nic Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 They are adjusted using an allen key, put the allen key (4mm I think but may be wrong) in the hole in the top and turn, as you turn you should feel it click to the next damper setting.

Chris Wilson Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Yes, 4 mm Allen key, but be VERY VERY gentle, if you force it at all, past either extreme position, you can effectively damage them internally, irreparably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey001 Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Thats great news for you mate!!! Bet you never slept last night thinking about this! Pleased its worked out for you and hope you got these fitted today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey. Posted January 23, 2011 Author Share Posted January 23, 2011 All fitted up and have setup the shocks for the ride I want, around half way. Now I just need a c spanner to adjust up the ride height. But over the moon, didn't take to long either! Win win!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
