Hey,
I picked up a set of these coilovers. I noticed one front thrust washer has a little play in it. I have not installed them yet but wondering if it would cause issues . Would like to replace it or repair if possible. Has anyone had this issue on their setup before? I believe it could have been damaged by not being seated properly between the top mount and the plate for the spring. My setup is using the stock top mounts. Thanks, Martin |

oh really?
so it sounds like it is a thrust washer then! Are these new? I have a set that are a few years old and when I got them they had rubber seats. If you could take a pic and post it that would be helpful, Im interested in what yours looks like. here are mine, I used a combination of the rubber spring seats and delrin/stainless steel thrust washers --------------------  1995 GT::::Diffusing the Situation エキサイティングカーレーシングチーム! march 2010 COTM : 6GC feature 2014 : january 2015-2016-2018 COTM |
