Hi all

Iv got a adjustable beam in my lowlight kombi and iv gone to lower the front alittle more ...

Iv put the car on stands then lifted one wheel to take the slack off the adjuster ...

When iv taken the nut off the adjuster plate followed and i was unble to raise or lower the screw ... i lowwered the wheel and raised it but nothing happenedto the screw it steyed in the same place... i gave it a few knocks and still nuthing

Can anyone explain this... or tell me what i should do ...

i wanted to take it one tooth up on the bottom beam ... this should be about a 1 inch drop yes ?

Indian Automotive adjusters are about 15mm per tooth, and you must keep the same number of teeth moved on both top and bottom beams.
