Notes about adjustment work on the spring struts
The spring strut has a thread and a height adjusting nut No. 2 for height adjustment. The height adjusting nut No. 2 is secured against turning by the
lock nut No. 1.
The stabilizer block - No. 4 - (mounting saddle for the stabilizer mount) is also fitted on the thread. The stabilizer block can be vertically adjusted and
it is provided with a lock nut No. 3. This adjustment possibility is only useful for racing. It can be used to ensure that enough clearance is available for
the stabilizer mount even for deviating vehicle heights (only for racing) and also that the stabilizer mount can be fitted free of tension.
The stabilizer block No. 4 does not need to be adjusted for the vehicle height prescribed for street use.
