« on: November 18, 2013, 04:54:07 pm »
As abouve guys is it easy done or not?

Any body recommend a place that does this? Or is it a case of sending them off the FK (brand) for a rebuild? ?

What are they worth?

When you say seized do you mean you can't adjust or they no longer rebound?

Got my ap's unsized by GNJ Motorsport, highly recommend them if your are close.

Blowtorch, wd40 and plenty of effort!

When my coilovers seized up on my corsa, i just took a hammer and a screw driver to the adjuster rings. Then again, they were only £150 coilovers. I'm not sure you'd want to attempt that  :smiley:
