DIY Coilover

[sketchy]

Thanks for links guys.

Looking at the Tokico spacer (image courtesy of DJexor), it is machined to fit into the recess on the base of the damper.


As a spacer for the koni damper, i think a simple flat (20mm dia and 20mm depth) piece of steel round billet should be fine - base of the Koni damper is flat.

The OEM gland nuts do fit over the damper...but with a couple of millimeters to spare unfortunately. The gland nuts that came with the koni dampers have a tight fit (but are too small to thread into the ae86 strut).
Without having my strut casing modified to its new short stroke length, i dont know if this is a major issue. Anyone got a suggestion for this? Could it move when its all torqued down? Can post a pic to help illustrate.

Some of the roads around my way are awful, a set of bump stops is definitely a good suggestion! I think Camberley Autofactors are a distributer for Koni stuff in the UK, so i've pinged them a mail.
