    Full body coilovers, or just sleeves?

    *Did you remove/put the bottom cup upside down?
    *Did you remove the dustcovers from the stock shocks?
    *Did you cut the bumpstops in half?

    There are all instructions in the Skunk2 coilover set.

    Sounds like he has full coilovers. I assume you have the ride height adjusted all the way tight but still have the spring preloaded.

    You will just need to unload the spring by threading the nuts down, you will lose shock travel but it shouldn't be enough to damage the shock. If you already have them all the way down then you are screwed. Will need to find shorter springs or modify.

    EDIT:

    Look how damn nice I am, see below. Should help a little

    Take the 2 lock rings out, Thats what i did with my megan's but i still have 12 threads to go of spring adjustment before i'm maxed out.
    Err, i guess they're called "jam nuts" But whatever!

    You can take the bottom mount completely off and unscrew the 2 "jam nuts" since you'll have the mount adjusted all the way up anyway.

    I'm stoked on the ride but not stoked on how low i can go once i decide to lower the back as far as i can.
