Has anyone adjusted the ride height on their AVO rear coilovers that DMC currently sells? Is it as simple as getting a spanner tool and rotating the bottom collar?

It kind of defeats the purpose of adjustablity a little if you feel the need to compress the springs. But I will agree it makes it easier.
You can certainly adjust them just with a spanner. Coilover type shock/spring assemblies are very common in many other automotive crowds and it does not cause any problems.

My drivers side shock started leaking oil (Hervey's easy rider) so I replaced it with a NOS shock and it fixed the drop (drivers side was lower than passenger side.

if you drive it you will find it settles a bit.
The springs determine the height, the shocks just dampen.
