    How much higher can you go without compromising ride and articulation? You either need more arch which will be destroyed quicker when compressing to your current bump, or need it to be stiff as hell...

    Tits!

    @Mademan925 so I used a level off of my fender flare... I'm at 25 5/8" on the driver side and 26 1/8" on the passenger side :eek:

    Do with that as you will... My flares have a little play in them plus I could have cut +/- an 1/8" off of them. But yeah tits....

    I'm not bro leaning and my CV angles look nice. I may crank them down though once I can test flex. I need a wrench though... Thought my coilovers were supposed to come with one :confused:

    You have to take them out and use a spring compressor to adjust them.. Or at least with my kings. Damn that looks good though

    Man i thought the same thing when i got my Fox's in, spend close to 2Gs on coilovers and they wont throw in a $30 wrench to adjust them? WTF? A call to Jason at DSM and he said he could order me one or i could use a brass drift and turn them up that way. I have a brass drift so i use that. He also mentioned that none of the manufacturers include wrenches in their kits now. Lame.

    No i actually went with Fox and their DSC Resi option, price was the same for either company's adjustable valving and the wait time was the same. Figured i would try out the lesser used option. If that ends up biting me in the ass I'll have them rebuilt and swap to Kings or ADSs.
