    I have Toytec ultimate front coilovers - and seemed to misplace my spanner wrench.
    I will send it back to you or personally deliver after use :)
    I am in Hollywood/West Hollywood area.
    Just need to make a small adjustment

    You are better off just trying to find a dowel that fits into the hole, lube threads, jack up the truck and give it a turn. That's how I do them. Also most generic double ended spanners work as well for that job.

    IIRC Fox uses a smaller hole in the adjustment collar. Or at least I think so, I do so many lift it become a blur sometimes...

    But the OP here is looking for Toytec, I don't remember what size those are since I don't do very many of those kits. Judging from the picture its likely one or the other. I think the Icon stuff has a weird size, I had to make some custom dowels to adjust those from high carbon tool steel since they are a bit on the small size.
    I actually made 2 of them to try and use at the same time since using one if it is dirty tend to very hard to turn and will just bend the dowel right away and thats not so helpful, lol.
