Question Adjust Tein HA Drop - its stuck

Does anyone know how to adjust if the tein is so tight.. to the point it feels like its stuck.. How can you adjust it.. with some WD40 to loose it up a good idea?

I have not adjust for 3 month.. today.. I want to adjust it.. it won't budge...

Help...

I spray some "oil" to loosen it up.

The guys that installed my Tein's said I should spray the threads on the coilovers once a month with a rust spray like the one they supply with the coilovers but when that runs out use WD-40 or something to that extent.. Now if you run coilovers in the winter they told me to spray the threads every two weeks..

Spray the threads and good luck with moving then!

Ken,

Thanks for the pic but mine didn't have that. Perhaps TEIN just added it for FLEX line.

Adjusting those coils is pain in the ***. I hurt my thumb couple times cuz they were too tight.
