Finally got PO’d about trying to adjust the ride height with the standard Koni coilover that came with the kit. I needed to raise the car 1/2” more than the specified ride height so the running board outer edges wouldn’t scrape going over the berm at the end of driveways.
There is nothing to keep the black threaded tube from turning while you try and turn the adjuster ring on the bottom.
Next to impossible to get at and then try to hold the black tube when they are mounted in the car, no room.
A few days ago I pulled all 4 coilovers, drilled and tapped some holes for set screws to keep the tube from turning.
I bought QA-1 needle bearing thrust washers which helped a lot. I set all 4 up 1/2” higher out of the car, will install them this weekend.
