Default Tein Flex Coilover Question

Hello.. i just ordered a complete set of tein flex coilover package and i've got a couple of questions out of curiousity to those who are currently running the setup.

what is the lowest possible setting that the coilovers will do? and does anybody have it set on that?

how did the installation go? how long did it take you?

when you received you tein flex package, it was already assembled right?

does adjusting ride height take long? my friends VW has some type of coilover suspension, i'm not sure which one, but all he has to do is lay on his stomach and use his coilover wrench and he can adjust ride height from there without lifting the car.


Thanks. I appreciate your time.

Yes, you need that special wrench to adjust height...Takes about an hour and some dirt on your shirt...

With 15 inch stockers, Flex system drops your car 2 inches from the ground if you want..

Installation takes 2 hours by a pro..It took 4hours when I helped out someone put his Teins in..Rears take no longer than an hour but the front will take longer since you gotta take out the lining on the fenders to push the UCA (Upper control arm) down..

Theres a whole write up somewhere about this install...These are all common questions you can find if you just SEARCH..

Yes, it comes assembled..Unless you have the Tein Basic or HA system, you'll have the bolt the upper mounts into the coilover itself..Flex already comes with metal upper mounts so you don't have to worry..
