Help: Raising height of rears coilovers
need help! Bc racing coilovers. All videos online show people lowering the rears but never raising the height of the rears. How exactly do I raise it? I understand getting springs more compressed makes it higher but exactly how do I mess with the two perches? Sounds simple cuz you are supposed to do opposite of lowering but I'm not understanding exactly with out seeing it.

Based on your picture, 2 things need to happen:
The strut is adjustable so that it doesn't hit the bump stop so you can adjust the shock's body position.
the springs perches: You loosen the top perch so the bottom one can move. you'll need to lock both of your wrenches on to each perch to get it loose.
Personally, i think its easier to just take out the spring and adjust it accordingly.

Thanks so if I were to not take out the spring, how would I adjust after the top perch is loose? This is the part I'm not seeing in videos anywhere. Should I just keep turning the bottom perch pushing the spring down?
