COILOVERS HELP NEEDED

Postby rs220bhp on Sun May 28, 2006 6:25 pm

Ive just bought a new Fiesta and it has avo coilovers fitted front and rear. The car is sitting a little high front and rear and i want to lower it a bit more, but dont know if i have to compress the spring more or release it abit, Ive never used them before hence why i dont know. Any info would be a great help.

Cheers Steve

Wind the spring platforms down, ie. release the spring, to make it lower

Use the C-spanner to turn the spring platforms so the right hand side of the platform is coming towards you (i.e. turn the spanner from the right to the left).
