coilover adjustments
I was wondering how you guys adjust your coilovers evenly? Is there some sort of scale or measurement, or do you just set them to full extension and then count the turns of the wrench adjusting them lower? Also, I just wanted to ask you guys opinions on what I should do. I have skunk2 sport shocks( modeled after the skunk2 pro coilover shocks) with tein s-tech springs. Im looking at getting rid of the teins and putting on some skunk2 coilover sleeves (suppose to be a perfect match for my struts) or should I just sell the skunk2 struts and tein springs and buy some tein basic coilovers? (Only thing is that the skunk2 struts were a fair amount of $$ and I feel like im wasting money if I sell them) Thanks for any opinions and answering the first question

Personally, I just do it by eye... adjust one spring and get it where I like it, then move on to the other side of the car and try to match it. You really can't go by the number of turns... it never works out for one reason or another.
And personally, I'd get the skunk2 coils.

I just try to go by turns on mine. It usually gets it about right, but then I go back and check it all by eye and sometimes use a tape measurer. I only raise it for winter.

alright thanks, I thought the turn counts might work to roughly get it there, and then by eye. I will only have to raise mine in winter as well, only if I cannot afford a 4*4 beater by then

i use a tape measurer to get all corners set right. just adjust untill im at the height i need it to be and mark the measurement and do the same on the other side. as for the coilovers, i'd save some money and get the skunk2's.
