DIY: Adjusting ride height on coilover suspension
Just finished up installing my MCS suspension a little while back. Part of the process is adjusting the ride height before getting it off for alignment & corner balancing.
The video below goes over the process I use for adjusting my coilovers for preferred ride height. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEQhUf5V1bY[/ame]

So easy with the QuickJack! Way better than using the ol' floorjack.

That QuickJack looks amazing but $1800 is too rich for my blood. I got a maintenance quote for $1800 and decided to just DIY it, can't justify the money. In terms of suspension tuning though, I dig the video. I came here looking for how-to suspension maintenance and pretty sure there are no shortcuts, I just have to take the wheels off and look at it.

You can find the QuickJack for around $1k. At least for the version I have. Usually the QuickJack site itself has the best deals.
