if you want to go lower, the most you can do is sag your springs. that is not the proper way to do it and will most likely result in blowing your shocks faster

im not asking how to go lower, im asking how to adjust ride height in the first place.

Got this from Tanabe website...

" Front adjustments are located on top of the stock shaft, while rear adjustments are placed at the bottom of the shock case, offering easy access for quick suspension adjustments."

A little research maybe?

too bad they're referring to dampening, not height adjustment...
