    question about my coilovers

    I have reactive coilovers on my car from a 90-97 accord. The thing Im wondering is Im as low as I can take it in the front and its only at 1in possibly 1.5 drop. Now Im wondering can you put coilover sleves on upside down?

    The side of my sleve that sits on the spring perch has like an inch band of nonadjustablity to it so Im thinking that possibly the sleves are unsidedown cuz, at the moment the hole that you put a screw in the keep the sleves from going up and movin around is up towards the top of the strut.

    what yall think?
    my car is stock it just likes sittn lower to the ground than most cars:

    If i get what you are saying. You could flip the coil-over sleeve over to have the threads go down farther and it shouldn't have any effect other than being able to go lower, possibly. The unthreaded part of the sleeve is to keep the adjustable perch from hitting the spring perch on the strut.
