Default Tein Coilover adjustment

I was going to lower my rear today but didn't. I want to make sure I do this right.

Is the lower spring lock seat the lower bolt?

Like in this pic!!!!!

Just want to make sure since the Tein instructions were a bit unclear.

yeah, the lower spring lock is the lower one that you see "teeth" on it. it has to be locked with the upper one. turn them against each other until they are locked tight

I lowered the rear today, it was pretty simple, used a little WD-40 to loosen the dirt out of the threads!!!!

I had to use the stock jack, my other jack was to high for the car, need to go and buy the low jack.

Thanks though for the guidance!!!!
