Its easy. Lift up the front or rear (depending on which you want to adjust) of the car. Loosen up the set screw on the adjusting collar, spin the collar up or down, tighten up the set screw, repeat the procedure on the other side, lower car.

I believe the Ground Control coilover sleeves are adjusted using a "perch" or special key which is used to turn the spring seat to either go lower or heigher.
