Tips for accessing compression adj. on KW V3
 
Hey everyone

Any good tips for adjusting the KW V3's compression without unbolting them from the lower control arm in the front?

Looks like the rears you can access just by removing the wheel, but the front doesn't look so easy....

Thanks!

i did it by simply removing the wheel and bending the little tool to curve around the lower control arm mounts. then spun it slowly..

This. Exactly what I did on my G37.. Not the easiest however I never really adjusted them much

I was told at the install, I have them on the "medium" setting.

Since they are an asspain to change the settings, I've never touched them. But I would like an easier way of adjustment, which is making me debate on whether to keep them, or look for another set that's easier to adjust.

I just cut a curve in the black lower bracket so now I don't even have to remove the wheel.:tup:

Thanks guys.
Bending the adjuster key a bit worked great.

Laguna Seca tomorrow :)
