^^^^^ that seems kind of odd....Im guessing they said keep the perches hand tight just for installation purposes...

The coilovers should have a set spring preload from factory so it is the same for everyone who buys these coilovers....they were designed for a certain spring preload for certain cars....so for example, stance coilovers for an evo will def have a different spring preload then a 240. I need to know what the settings are (or spring length) for these coilovers when you take them out of the box....or at least a starting point that stance recommends.

I found directions from stance that said how to set the dampening and what to set them at to start etc etc. but nothing on spring preload

thanks in advance
