BC Coilovers Question

The rear springs have a perch ring adjustment to compress the spring and push your rear upwards. You need to adjust both the spring perch and the strut adjustment to lift or lower the car in the rear. Since yours is not a true type of coils.

You need to preload the spring watch the video. Hope this helps.

Ok so the strut does adjust height as well? I was told (maybe incorrectly) that only the spring is used to adjust height and the strut is for preload adjustments only. Them working hand in hand does make more sense though after watching the video. This is the first time ive done full coilovers (on a Z), my other ones i just went spring and strut combo (so much easier) lol
