Default Who wants to give me some tips for installing coilovers?

I FINALLY got coilovers today! Custom built gossow sport coilovers. made specifically for an audi a4 1.8T (correct shocks, spring rates etc). I am going to install them this saturday. I thought I would ask if there is anything special that I will need to install them? I've done suspension MANY times on volkswagens, but no audis yet!

Here's a pic. it looks like there is about 10" of thread on the rears

Default More info please

So you have height adjustable coil-overs that also allow dampening adjustment while they are on the car? I just want to be sure because I have been waiting 6 months for Bilstein to release the PSS9 for the A4!

Do you have a vendor or other info regarding these coil-overs?

Much thanks in advance!
