yes



You can increase height, and decrease pretension in your springs amonst a few other things. Are you running Flexes ?
Adjustable length and twin tube shell case.
Spcial setting for sporty driving and ride confort.
You can set your vehicle to meet all situations!

well lift your your front up on a safe jack, take a look at your struts. Do you see a thread running all the way up the sleeve ? Also, do you see a few large "rings" that turn on the thread. The bottom, right at the wheel plate is where the height adjustment is. The spring pretensioner is at the base of the springs, and I can't remmeber where the struts adjust is. But I have a set of flexes on order that will arrive in Feb ...

now, I just gotta work on getting the car
