plus

Thats if DW cant get you the spanners you need of course

 

[Robbs]

yeah thats what i was gonna resort to but would be nice to have some spanners for ease of use.

I find that with wheels in the way etc, the hammer and screwdriver works easier if anything

 

[gaz_moose]

do DW sell hammers and screwdrivers?
C spanners generally come in two sizes small for 58mm ID springs and big for 65mm ID springs most of the JDM coilovers ive seen are the larger ones.
Make sure what ever spanners you buy have a nice 'grip' on the adjusting collar as a slip here = punching metal stuff.
Some are like 3mm pressed steel and are only good for adjusting brand new units.
also make sure you coat all of the adjuster threads in plenty of anti-seize if its for a road car and you dont plan on taking them apart often.

Yeah the tein c spanners will work with pretty much all coilovers with traditional style collars, even if it's not a perfect fit they'll hook on.

i went to lower my 300zx last weekend,

its on Teins.

couldtn get the wheel off as the previous owner didnt give them the alloy wheel locking nut

have to force em off this week with smaller socketc

Robbs, let me know how easy they were to lower,

PS its a good idea to WD40 them so they dont seize then yea??

 

[MJG]

Copper grease would be better than WD40 as that will just wash off again. Copper grease would last longer.
