      Coilover Adjustment

      I know its a farely hard question to ask. I have the dse setup in my 72 nova, woindering how many turns on the adjustment equals what adjustment in height.

      Trying to figure out how many turns i need to get where i want to be.

      thanks

      I don't think it is a number of turns sort of thing. My guess is raising the coilover spring 1/2 inch would raise the front end approximately 1 inch, roughly double what you raised the coilover. Just measure how far up the threads you move and double it for the ride height change.

      Its not that I didn't want to have to do it a million times(there DSE, thers no way around that lol) I just wanted somepalce to start. I didnt want to do 4-5 turns then put it back in and its way to low, just trying to save some time.

      for referrence however, one full turn on my nova netted me about .75"-1." drop, however it is a varriable.
