Help with Tein mono flex w/ EDFC install

As title say, my coilover kit will be arriving in the few days and just wondering if anyone out there has some sort of DIY guide. The only guide that I could find is the "tech install: Zero/E-con" thread created by Endless Rotaries back in 2007, and none of the pictures work except shifter console removal.

I'm looking for tips & tricks, touqe spec, things that I need to watch out for, any special tools or spare parts that I need. And last but not least, how to pre-load the spring?

you should get it professionally installed if you are asking how to install it. Most coilovers don't even come with instruction manuals.

what part do you need help on. If you ask I will answer, just pm me.

Well, I did the coilover install this weekend. The ride is definitely feel firmer. However, I adjust the measurement as close as possible according to the manual but my rear left is still about 1/4" to 1/2" higher than my rear right. I did the ride height measurement from fender edge to wheel center. Is this normal?

Also, is it true that compressing and decompressing spring preload is the only way to obtain the recommended measurement in the manual (excluding ride height)?

Can someone chime in on these?
