    Question Coilovers

    This is for the guys/gals who currently run coilover suspension on the rides. Can you adjust the height of the vehicle without the coilover wrench??
    Thanks in advance..Low

    If theres any weight on the suspension, forget about it. You missing your C-Spanners?

    You shouldn't be adjusting them under any load ever. You rarely need the C-spanners - if you do, just get some from a DMS/Drummond dealer

    Thanks alot for your input. I know not to adjust them with load on them that would be a stupid idea. I just needed the replacement c spanners thats all. Thanks again... Low

    I remember coming across a user on VWvortex (American) that fabricates all kinds of coilover adjusting spanners. If I come across his posts again I'll link his email here.
    Past: Mk3 Golf 2L 8V, Audi 8L A3T.
    Present: Mk3 Golf variant.
