stance GR+ oem type height adjustment help!

hi, i have oem type stance GR+
how do i go about adjusting my oem rear setup?
i adjust both spring in the bucket and strut at the same time right? how do I know how much adjustment on strut is equal to adjustment on spring (since diameter is different)?
ex. 1 full turn on strut = .5 turn on spring..etc..

Thanks!!

with my coils for the spring bucket. i just wanted the drop similar to my h-tech drop so i made the shock body length as oem but a tad bit shorter. you want to do it to the height of the drop.

Take the strut out.. adjust the height of the car with just the spring.. measure from the top of the strut mount to the bottom where is mounts on the car.. then take that measurement and adjust your strut..

IIRC one full turn on the spring collar adjustment = one full turn on the strut. So they are equal.

oh wow, good to know papa.
so if they are euqal like that, it should be pretty simple to adjust height.
does the spring need to come off the bucket to adjust collar?
