how to adjust ride height on Konis?
how to adjust ride height on Konis?
How does one adjust the spring perches/ride height on the Koni struts/shocks? Do I need to pull the strut assembly completely off the car or can I adjust while its on the car? Does the spring need to come off?
I'm finally getting my FD back from a motor rebuild this week. I bought it with a dead engine so I haven't really driven it yet. It is a 93 Touring with Koni adjustables, stock springs/sways. I need to do the upper strut mount on one side and I was thinking of adjusting ride height while I'm there. I don't want to go super low, but I figured the middle setting might be good.
I'm running stock wheels with 245 Kumhos. Don't remember if it is a 40 or 45 sidewall.
Thanks for the help.

You have to take them off the car, and remove the springs and the chrome koni spring perch (use a spring compressor for safety!), then use some needle-nose pliers to remove the C-clip, snap it in a different groove, reassemble.
