Default Neuspeed Bilstein Grooved Shocks...
I am thinking about buying these, but I am wondering how hard it is to adjust the perches the shocks are set to once they are on the car... anybody know? tia

Default can't do it
you have to take the assembly out. You don't have to take the spring off the shock to change the perches, but you'll have to compress it of course.

Default guess it depends on
what springs you have as well as what kind of spring compressor. I didn't have enough suspension travel to compress it enough.
