I had one once, not sure if I still do, but I remember it being pretty cheap. Cheap as in didn't work very well.

Also from memory, while you might be able to lower it with the rings, forget about raising it back up without a spring compressor.

Ive been doing it with channel locks... No rings. Going up was easy. Adjusting down is more difficult but it works

I have QA1 front set up. I am running a lq9 408 PM with your number and ill send you a pic of my car. And a pic of the strut. And the thread count you can try it, and fine tune it for your set up. It seems to leave good. And I like to let em hang off the line at the strip. Because the tuners can't lol. And as far as the wrench goes. Chanel locks work. But I made a better one. I used the stock one for something else.
