It ain't easy, I think if you google clarkes site the details are there or maybe on Lindsays site.
It's done by indexing the torsion bars same as a Beetle, micro adjustment is easy, big adjustment, like lowering can have you phoning the Samaritans.

The ride in the GTO is like that, I dont think i fancy the ride being that hard. She is comfy at the mo, but i would like her to be a little lower just not to the bone rattling stage. :? :?
