With the purchase of my Mantula Spyder, I now have shocks that have an adjustment for the ride height. In my case the front is about ½ higher than the back and I want to lower the front to make them even. I don\u2019t have any C spanner wrenches to do this and I\u2019m looking for suggestions on what/where I should purchase some. My shocks are yellow and I believe hey are Spax. Do the wrenches come in different sizes? If so, which size do I need?

If you will measure the diameter of the adjusting nut and let me know I may have one you can have.

The wrenches do come in different sizes. There is also a universal type that will fit a range of sizes. Pegasus Auto Racing https://www.pegasusautoracing.com/keywordsearch.asp?KeywordStart=Shock+wrench <https://www.pegasusautoracing.com/keywordsearch.asp?KeywordStart=Shock+wrench> has a selection. Be sure to take the weight off the wheel before you adjust the nuts. Mike Denman Marcos 1800 GT

Rory has them, I griped when they sent the shocks and no spanner, they sent one immediately.
