Re: blown front shocks

Hey Robb I just finished my suspension rebuild and have got the fronts off of my 02. The left one has a coilover "stuck" on it and the right one is blown heres pics: http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g9...i/DSC01468.jpg

Re: blown front shocks

As the guy who has to destroy a pair of struts on Rob's behalf... what do you mean by stuck on? The sleeve wont come off the housing?

Hey Boiler! It's just the top blue plate is stuck around the piston about a 1/8th of an inch down. Let me know if you want a better pic of what I am talking about if needed.

Re: blown front shocks

I will be doing a suspension swap (shock, spring) by the end of this week. The left one is blown, but the right one rides like it should. PM me if you are interested.
