Ntech - GC coilover setup

Just a quick question, I am almost sold on this setup simply because I can change/rebuild components easily to fit my needs. I recently discovered that the adjustability on the Koni yellow's also affects the ride height? How easy is it to adjust the ride height of the spring with the threaded sleeve? I don't have to remove the whole shock setup to do this do I? TIA..

The koni have 3 grooves in the them...a ring sits on these grooves and the sleeve will sit on this ring...

Front : put the ring on the top groove...trust me...I am maxxed out...my sleeve is all the way at the top.

Rear : I had plenty of room up and down with this one....mine is in the middle groove.

It's very easy to adjust...they say you can do it with one hand..but that's BS...get the little wrench deal from nick or GC and it's cake from there. No you dont have to remove the whole deal

I heard the same abou the front being maxed out on the perch. You can request to get longer springs for the the front to fix this.

yeah if I had to do that again...I would have...but I didn't hear that at the time.. another 2 inches in spring length would have been nice

You're not the only one...Nick somehow neglected to mention this to me and several others.

yeah lucky for me it's perfect where it is.....but it would have been nice...I was worried for a moment..my plans are eventually to run 255x35x18 or 265x35x18 up front...so I dont want to be too low...
