Default blown coilover

i have some omni power full body coilovers and i was lowering my car yesterday and found out that my left front one is blown. i called the customer serivce line at omni only to find out that they stopped making coilovers all together and that there is nothing that they can do for me. i live in the seattle everett area and i was wondering if anyone knows of a place that can rebuild them. any information is helpful.

Let me guess. U have the 1st gen ones. Those are notorious for messing up. I've seen a thread that had omni coilovers borken at the shock body. U probaly could just order the shock itself from omni. I would just buy the newer gen all together

If you want to send to us we would love to look to see if we can fix it or not here, we get tons of requests for a few brands we have not seen in person, so just throwing it out there.
