Default Do I need a special tool to adjust FK coilover ride height?
I've STFA's and cant get any specifics... Looks like I need some special wrench with teeth or something - any ideas?

Default It's called a spanner wrench.
They do come in different sizes, but for the most part, if you're close to the diameter of the perch, you can make it work.

Default Nah...probably wasn't included.
H&R includes wrenches with their kits, but I wouldn't be surprised to learn that FK doesn't.
