skunk2 coilovers adjusting themselves
i have skunk2 adjustable coilovers, stock struts, and it seems like my rear keeps getting lower. i adjust both front and rear the same, and over about a months time the rear looks a good half inch to an inch lower than what i set it at. i also have the spc rear camber kit. i dont understand this at all, or how to prevent it.

My 1st guess would be because the dampers are getting weaker and weaker... if they havent totally blown by now.

Rep Power: 412 they bounce too much, there is oil leaking from the shaft, they are weak...It makes your car unable to handle well and can be dangerous.
