Default DRM Coilover spanner wrench?

Hello all, I have an opportunity to get a DRM Coilover Package for my C5, the only issue is the seller cant find the spanner wrench to adjust them. I looked on their website, but i cant seem to find one on there either.

Does anyone know where i can get a spanner wrench for them, or which ones are compatible?


Thanks!!

Try calling Hyperco, who supplies the coilover springs for the DRM kit.

I figure ill answer my own question, just in case anyone else searches for the same info.

The answer is measure the diameter of the adjustment ring, in this case its about 3". Then buy an appropriate sized spanner wrench, from jegs, summit, ebay, whatever. Most give measurements for what sizes they will work on, adjustable ones are also sold that will work.


Thanks...
