Seems to be a few different sizes on the bay so how would you measure to find out what size i need?


Spotted these ones.

My teins, JICs and spax all use the same spanner. I got mine from a eBay shop about 3 years ago for £7.

When I can't find it I just use some pipegrip/swan neck adjustable thing which works well

the ones i got with my brand new gaz shocks arent much cop, you only get one per set (one for the front and one for the back set) and they are different sizes so i still have to use some pipe grips when adjusting them

Sure the adjusters on my coilovers are squared round the adjusters.

So do you think those 40-70mm spanners in the link above would work on the gha coilovers?

measure across the platform/spring and that will tell you what spanner size you need.

Gaz will sell them too.

Can the ride height be easily adjusted by hand until i get some spanners or are they a must?

Anyone know if Halfords or Motorworld sell them?
