anyone got an idea of how to adjust your coilovers and have them balance? making sure each side is the same height etc?..... any insight would be great...
See the grooves??
See the yellow circlip??
Move the circlip up and own to adjust height, and slip the springs seat over the top, like this
Thats how you adjust the height... then stick it all back together like this
Notice how the spring sits lower than the standard one.. look closely, its not a lot (10m)
Hope that helps answer it for someone... Coilovers are basically the same (some are, some aren;t)
thanks McChook, thats seems understandable in a koni point of view, since there are grooves, and basically you just slot the piece you want to adjust into one of the grooves.
how about something like this
or
seems like you screw the plate up and down for this one?
I guess it depends on how pedantic you are as well. For me, if you have gone to the extra expense of coil-overs, you want to have them set-up 100% spot-on so that you can make the most of them.
A full-on setup would include corner-weight balancing where scales are placed under each individual tyre. You can then adjust heights to get precise weight proprtions, etc, depending on how you want it setup.

Myself and my father do this for petty cash actually. We have a set of cornerweight scales.. If anyone would like to hire us (Colin Osbourne is a customer), PM me.
