i got the rear struts off my 86 4wd d/r wagon , [ came off easy] my question is how do you adjust them ?? i see 3 settings , it is at it's lowest setting , there are 2 higher settings ,there is some rust not to bad , another question , if i adjust them to the highest setting how much more will the back end set up ?? someone told me to adjust them while on the car ,there are going onto my wife's 88 turbo full time 4wd a/t wagon , there are already adjustable struts on the front which are on it's highest setting

you have to compress the spring to adjust that bottom piece and on the highest setting with good springs, i got about 1 1/2 inches out of it when i adjusted that up on my wagon

ok, i guess i will try out my new spring compressor , thanks

np and have fun lol you will have to still put a little muscle into getting them to turn but its not 2 bad

gave up after a few minutes , started stripping out the 86 wagon , thanks
