The damper and spring are assembled as a unit prior to installation, and are replaced as a unit when either of the sub-components fails. Some coilovers are adjustable. Most, if not all, adjustable coilovers have variable ride height and preload, adjusted using a simple threaded spring perch similar to a nut.
Rear-view mirror showing cars parked behind the vehicle containing the mirror. A rear-view mirror (or rearview mirror) is a, usually flat, mirror in automobiles and other vehicles, designed to allow the driver to see rearward through the vehicle's rear window (rear windshield).
Height adjustable suspension is a feature of certain automobile suspension systems that allow the motorist to vary the ride height or ground clearance. This can be done for various reasons including giving better ground clearance over rough terrain, a lower ground clearance to improve performance and fuel economy at high speed, [1] or for stylistic reasons.
A side-view mirror (or side mirror), also known as a door mirror and often (in the UK) called a wing mirror, is a mirror placed on the exterior of motor vehicles for the purposes of helping the driver see areas behind and to the sides of the vehicle, outside the driver's peripheral vision (in the "blind spot").

Suspension lifts can enable steeper approach, departure, and breakover angles ...
When first introduced, it was relatively rare for British cars to have independently sprung rear wheels, [1] most production cars of the time using live rear axles. Independent suspension systems offer the advantage of lower unsprung mass to improve roadholding, and when properly designed, the ability to maintain the roadwheels perpendicular to ...
Top view: The arms have to control toe/steer and lateral compliance. This needs a pair of arms longitudinally separated. Front view: The arms have to control camber, particularly the way that the camber changes as the wheel moves up (into jounce, or bump) and down into rebound or droop. Side view:
Vehicles in the adjacent lanes of the road that fall into these blind spots may not be visible using only the car's mirrors. Rear quarter blind spots can be: checked by turning one's head briefly (risking rear-end collisions), reduced by installing mirrors with larger fields-of-view, or
