Paragon Adjustable Ride Height Spanner
Posted: Thu May 09, 2024 5:36 am
I bought the Paragon "Coil Over Kit - Front" to go with my Koni sport inserts. But absentmindedly did not make sure I had a spanner to adjust the ride height after install.
Not wanting to wait, I pulled up the DIN standard for a pin Wrench and made one. This is not 100% DIN compliant because the DIN spec would be good for a range and I made this with a single radius so its specific to the mount.
2 versions, one with a shorter handle to work better in the wheel well, but the long handle works fine and gets roughly 180 degrees at minimum.
Very low impact in terms of force, but still I printed it with a large number of walls and top/bottom + very high infill %. Worked a treat, and since I'll probably never touch the ride height again now that its where I want it I'm glad I didn't spring for a real tool.
