I have a question about coilovers going thru a winter. Will the threads get destoyed because of salt and snow? I am running KYB GR2s with Eibach Prokits right now, but want to go lower, and kinda wanted to be able to raise and lower whenever i feel like it. I hear that the skunk2s are ok coilovers, but mated with the KYBs will give a pretty shaddy ride. My car is DD, and i can handle the crappy ride, im already use to it (18s and lowered), i just want to make sure my suspension isnt a rusticle after one winter and im stuck with an unadjustable coilover.

 

bump... interested for next winter just with full coilovers

 

bump, someone on these forums has to know something about this, help a newby out

 

just take care of them man. Every 2 weeks or so jus get under your car and wipe them down. make sure there is no junk inbetween the threads and collar. maybe spray them down with wd-40 if necessary and wipe clean. bling blaow

 

In the midwest, that **** will rust over. I live in IL and my boy had some coilovers and come spring, that **** looked nasty and they were rusted. You probably could get away with it, if you wash your undercarriage and spray from rust preventative on those coil overs.


My 2 pennies

 

i figured that the salt and snow would kill the **** out of those threads. i live in michigan and buffalo ny, so my car gets hammered with snow and salt, this really isnt an option it seems. hopefully i get that internship this winter in nc, and i wont have to put my car thru anymore winters
