Coilover adjustment question

i Just picked up a set of JIC flt a2's. I want to adjust the ride hight but im not understanding the whole double hight adjustability thing. Do i have unbolt the lower mount and rotate it to highten and lower it? or do i just loosen the lower collar ring and rotate the whole shock? I know im not supposed to adjust the spring perches as it will effect the preload of the spring. Thanks -alex

Have you checked their website? "The ride height is adjustable separate from the spring perch giving you maximum suspension travel at any setting. This also allows for proper corner weighting of the vehicle without effecting spring preload settings." If that doesn't help, give them a call, Tel: 562-803-6122. You just happened to luck out 'cause I happened to be talking to them a 1/2 an hour ago.

Talking

It looks like you only have to loosen the lower collar and start.....um, srewin'!
If you're realy worried about screwing up, why don't you mark your starting height location with a bright crayon and play around with your adjustments
