So i got the lowered spax coilover kit (the yellow ones.) and I can't seem to figure out how the new brackets go on. Anyone got pictures to share? Thank you!!

which brackets are these then?

 

bolt on to the bottom arm through the shock mount hole.

 

bolt onto the the point where the upper shock mount fixes.

 

by the way ´the angle the shock makes is totally wrong to work well.

This kit. I know the two large brackets are the top shock mount. But idk how the 2 square C shaped one and 4 flat ones work.

The C Brackets bolt on under the top ball joint nut. Then 2 of the flat brackets go either side of these back to the original shock mount holes (for each side).
