He has a issue in that the install instruction's are telling him he has to remove the adjustment **** on the fronts and their doesn't seam to be a way to accomplish that.

Did anyone ever find out how to take the damper setting off?

I called Bilstein Direct East coast side of things and he's sending me an e-mail with instructions.
