This is i know a stupid question but i just wanted to check and thats what you lot are great for!!
I am adjusting the front shocks and have been told to knock the lower spring holder around with a drift untill i have about 4.5 - 5inches ground
clearance.
What should the drift be made from? I am assuming it should be something soft to stop any damage being down.
Thanks for the help

I wouldn't use a drift might damage the adjuster 
Jack the car up and use one of those oil filter removal tools put some cloth between it an the adjuster nut and u don't damage it 
somthing like this

ahhh i have one of those!!
not sure it will go in there tho. it's inboard!
cant you use a c spanner on the adjuster? Does it not have slots in it?
Surely a C spanner will do the trick?
they are spax shocks so you would have thought so yes. not sure why tiger (Jim himself) did not suggest this?!

where is it best to get one of these from?
On my Nitrons, a couple of drill bits in the adjuster holes and a twist allows adjustment 
A drift works just fine just use a nice soft bit of aluminium alloy or brass or copper bar stock.
Make sure you loosen the grub screw first ! 
They go big enough to grip the nut.
reason tiger said drift it was that they prob assumed if you were asking then you didn't have a c spanner!
