ive adjusted my hsd coilovers to lower the car a bit and wanted to know if i have done it right

 

i loosened the 2 locking bits on the bottom of the spring and wound it down but after doing this the spring has got some play in it.

 

have i done this wrong

 

are you supposed to leave the spring alone and turn the whole shaft itself to lower it

 

can anyone tell me cus i think ive messed up

No no no! The spring seats need to stay the same or you ruin the pre-load (plus the springs rattle), you loosen the nut at the very top, loosen the collar at the very bottom, then wind the WHOLE THING up or down. HTH
