rokkor/raceland coilover help!

[kale's blue ep3]

I am totally confused about adjusting the ride height on my coilovers. There are 2 rings and the bottom ring is to lock the coil in place. I loosen up the locking ring and adjust the coil with the top ring but when i go to adjust lower the spring decompresses and doesnt seem to lower it Or when you compress the spring upwards is that lowering it? I am totally confused.

Ring down = car down

Ring up = car up.

Ring down = car down

Ring up = car up.

well thats what i thought, I went like a quarter inch down and the spring decompressed and it seems like the same ride height i had before or even higher

The suspension must settle.




Every time you jack the car up it needs to be driven a little to settle back to where the spring will really sit.
