Coilover install

[cruisn]

Id do it in an hour easy.

Id set up all of them partially before installing, 10mm preload on the spring adjustment and then all other adjustments from the hub attachment.

Set the rears up the same height, I use a steel ruler for mm accuracy between upper and lower locking rings.

Set the fronts up, drivers side 3mm higher. Install, drive around the block, park on a level surface and then see where it sits in relation to the guards. Adjust accordingly and as you know the heights are even, just use the ruler to adjust eg, 20mm lower all round, etc.

Put them on and see where it sits. Work out how far you need to go down or up. Measure the distance between the top rings and bottom rings. Adjust and re measure the gap until you have changed it by the correct amount.

I can't remember how much mine settled. I think it was 10-15mm.

I would also not recommend making them the same height as the ones you remove or you'll end up looking like a hilux.
When you go to bolt up the bottom you should have to jack the control arm up a bit to meet the shock, not jack the shock up to meet the car.

[edit] beat me to it.
