My rear shocks have the adjustable spring perch notches. They are now set at about the mid point. I think there are 6 notches for the snap ring. I want to lower the rear a bit. As I recall it was an easy process, but can't remember how to take the load off so the ring/perch can be moved.

I just installed Konis today and if Bilsteins are at all similar, with upgraded springs being shorter than stock by several inches.. jack up the car and remove the lower bolt at trailing arm to extend shock all the way out.. otherwise a strap could cinch the spring on itself a small amount safely. The last thing still would warrant caution though. good luck
