as the title says, need to know which way to go when attempting to raise the height of my truck with fox 3.0 coilovers. i figured i needed to spin in the direction to compress the springs, but not sure.
also any tips to get it level on both sides? trying to get it around 27 inches from hub to fender lip

also i apologize for all the ****** common sense threads ive posted lately, im not the sharpest tool in the shed haha

I would first try to clean threads and see if you could get it go further/tighter. It would be good thing if you try to turn collar little bit to see does it lock it or not. I don't think that it opens up much when you loosen allen screw but i could be wrong too. I had Icons and collars were bit different. Good luck.
