Missing A Peice Of A Coilover.

[chef_stagea]

hey all. i picked up a set of coilovers for the stag today, and on top of the hat theres a washer and bolt that goes onto the rod that goes inside the shock, under this washer there should be a rubber stoper peice that stops it clunking when it rebounds. (it pulles the rod back out with it) the way it is now it may chew the support. would i be ok to put some rubber washer things in or what??

there teins btw.

i'd just use your stock hats, i should have a pair of spring compressors in the shed if you need to borrow them too

here we go.. the peice circled and the bit im holding are the same bit, and is what i need! car torque think they may have it.

mike.. ive taken them all apart to clean em up... so there wound all the way down atm... should be ok but ill keep it in mind. any way... not like i should be winding em up far...

haha they better be staying low

nah, nah, i mean spring compressors for your standard struts if you decide to swap hats

There should be a fat rubber washer either side of the top hat. Which is toped off with a dome washer and nut to compress the washers into the top hat. You could use the washers off your old shocks. Ive done this before. If the top nut goes all the way down the strut shaft then it means you dont have enough packing around the top hats. I have put a few old ones in either side before just to make the rubbers more firm. Otherwise strut will move inside of top hat

Maybe try Pedders, they may have something.

Or maybe try Ryan @ ISC Coilovers.
