Shocks with lowering springs

Post by Ailfenergy » Wed Oct 21, 2015 9:08 am

One of my rear coilovers started to leak. Looking for a set of shocks with lowering springs (ideally rear pair) as a temporary fix. I would consider buying a set of spares/repairs coilovers. Open to offers.

I have a set of type s shocks with tein springs. Although one is leaking. Couldn't tell you which one tbh. Haven't looked at them since boxing them up 6 months ago.

I don't think a service includes them doing anything about the shocking corrosion though...

Yes if there is a corrosion on shafts they dont fix them, need to replace shafts.

Unfortunately one of my set has a leak. Typically it is one of the rears.
