To adjust height you still have to jack up the car.

It is on the top end of the coilover.

Yes I know that.

The original poster is asking for ride adjustment, not height adjustment.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, looking at some of the pictures, it looks like the ride adjustment is at the top of the shock correct? How then would you adjust the rear since the top is right under the rear window\speaker area? The front ones have easy access under the hood.

Balbs,

That's the fun part! You have to tear out the lining to access it. Best bet is to keep the lining out until you're happy with the damperage and then put it back.
