worn dampers

[The Monk]

how can you tell a damper is worn apart from the leaking?

 

[BenR]

it may squeek and thud.

 

[The Monk]

cheers, cause my dampers may wear out pretty soon cause of the -60 springs, but the in me say itll be a good excuse to replace it with some konis

 

[BenR]

i did the same.

 

[The Monk]

how long did your dampers last before they were shot?

 

[BenR]

they had already done 90,000 so when i did change them, they were useless, like water inside.

am running on lowered eibach springs along with factory dampers...someone told me that the dampers would wear out quicker this way...is that true? how long would one expect the factory dampers to last in this situation?

need a gauge to figger out when to start saving up for the koni yellows...

tks!
