Teins.. How hard is it to...... ?

Postby 99MXV » Mon Mar 13, 2006 7:59 am

Adjust the settings on the suspension ?

Given you have the right tool to do it.

Does it need to go on a hoist, or can it be done as easy as the Konis ?

Cheers

The Tein SS and Flex have a knob on the top, just like the Konis. The exception is that the Teins have a "click" as it goes thru its 16 settings.

Or are you talking about the preload or height adjustment of the spring perches. Simply take the weight off the corner and use the C spanners. Not hard at all. 8)

Not HARD either :mrgreen:
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.
