Default New to coilover, Megan coilover own please help.

i'm new to coilovers. I read somewhere on the form about adjusting the megan coilover. I cant seem to find that particular trend .. Anyways, i finally got my coilover after weeks and month of harrassing shops owners, and Megan itself.

I was reading the instruction that came with the kit. kinda confusing. How do you guys adjust the ride height? is it okay to adjust the two top spanner nuts, or should i just leave them alone? thanks for the help.

I'm sure i can figure it out, but answer from someone that have experience is a plus.

you adjust the lower part of the coil. dont mess with the spring rate.

You can't change the spring rate without changing the spring. You can change preload, but rate is fixed unless you replace or shorten the spring.
