I'm trying to raise a civic I just purchased and it has Dropzone coilovers. The problem is that the spring is below the threaded adjustable cylinder. This makes it almost impossible to get up in there and spin the adjustment plate while they are on the car.

My question is (from looking at pictures on ebay): Shouldnt the threaded cylinder be below the spring not above it? . . . Please forgive my ignorance with crappy suspension components. Thanks.

 

yes, I believe you are correct. The thread part goes to the bottom and that is what allows you to adjust up or down to get the height.

the only reason I could think someone would install them up side-down is to make it lower. I would suggest you remove them and install them correctly.

 

They should basiclly look like this, threaded pirch under the spring.

you need help swapping them around? PM me

The tire was just a little low on air . . .put some air in it and switched out with the truck. . . .I will know if theres a leak by the time I get home . . . .
