Bc coilover rear dampening?

Whiteout335i · 07-24-2016, 02:03 PM

Hey guys just installed my first set of coilovers Thursday. I was wondering how do I adjust the rear dampening. I'm rubbing and would like it stiffer.

It should have come with a knob/allen key thing. You have to remove the trunk lining to access the top of the strut. Then you just insert the key/knob and turn it.

Like posted above, you have to remove your truck liner in order to access the adjustment knob. Many people cut a hole in the liner to gain easier access to the knob.

you can also buy an extender for the knob and just have it come through the carpet so you don't have to remove the lining every time.
