I took about 10 minutes to decide how to word that question so I didn't sound like a retard... and I ended up sounding like one anyway!

The rears came in pieces, with a big silver cup thing with a hole in and a little copper cup thing with a hole in. It also had the springs and a little silver tube that just fits over the thread.

How does it all go together, and how do I adjust ride height?

Cheers!

It's a cup kit? Doesn't that man ride height isn't adjustable - just springs and shocks......

The rear shocks will probably have 4 or 5 grooves in them, if they do, then they are adjustable. Fronts wont be.

Doesn't look like it....

They're hottuning ones.

I think they're pretty awful, just wanted to the wagon sitting nice and low rather than the monster truck standard ride height.

You should have got coilovers then, that way you won't be disappointed if your wagon isn't at the height you wanted it.

The ebay listing said they were coilovers.

They're going back in the box and I'm going to sulk.
