Noob Q's
How long does it take for a coilover to get blown/bad? So when it gets bad, do you replace the whole coilover or just a damper? Thanks -------------------- God made man....

It all depends on how hard your settings are, how hard you drive, etc. If you've got yourself slammed and set to a stiff setting you'll eat the shock up faster than if you were at a reasonable drop with proper dampening.
And when some aspect of the coilover breaks (dampener, coil, pillowball, etc.) You can get that one part rebuilt/replaced, or you can buy new units. -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money
