Can someone higher my coilovers? (182)

[Jamie _Swales]

Think that this will resolve the clunkin problem on the 182, but cant seem to twist the threads (think they are a bit stuck)

Is there any easy way to unstick them? or is there anyone around the leeds area that can have a go for me?

Help me

BTW they are Gaz coilovers

have you tried soaking a bit of wd40 on the thread?

Raise......Can someone 'Raise' my coilovers? (182)

Have you got the C-Spanners?
Have you soaked them in WD40?

You may find a locking grubscrew

Yep, Gaz do have grubscrews too

 

[Turkish]

as said check the grubscrews then if it still wont shift get some proper penetrating oil (duck oil is s**t hot stuff) and fire a load of that on and leave it to soak for a while. If you can only get hold of aerosol cans then GT85 or plusgas is 100 times better than WD40

I used to cover all visable threads with 'vaseline' oooeerrrrr

Higher my coilovers lol. Are you Borat?

Use a wire brush on the threads to clean any crap out of them? Combined with liberal splashings of oil that should do the trick.

I did notice that Deemon Tweeks sell coilover covers, wonder if they're any good?

If you get stuck, I could give you a hand mate. I will be spending a bit of time on my girlfriends 147 on saturday having a look at a misfire so I will be grub'd anyway.
