    When raising there suspension what is the minimum allowable thread required in the bottom collar?

    • @AutoBuddynz

      Generally the strut lower collar should be screwed in approximately the diameter of the threaded adapter at the bare minimum. I personally like to always have it at halfway or more.

    Nice vid! If tein super street has 16 ajustments how much do you need to go back (from fully closed) ?

    • @AutoBuddynz
      @AutoBuddynz  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Dial it down half way, depending on the car it can be a split setup for the front example 7/8. Trail and error will get you at the best setting

    Why don't you show how to lower the coilovers? You only show how to raise it.
