Default Question about coliovers


So this broke off my BWR coliovers , The other one is tightend down good. Would it be good to drive it like this for a couple days ? I know it wouldn’t be safe but I dont get paid till Friday and cant find someone selling rear colis for cheap

That's what happens with shitty eBay quality coilovers. Yes, BWR is eBay junk. Are you using a ViseGrip to tighten the nuts?

I'd risk it as far as driving it for a couple of days.

But yes, I agree that BWR produces rather subpar products when compared to their competitors, especially in relation to their coilovers. Also just generally not a fan of the way they conduct business (basically by harassing anyone who questions/criticizes them, **** talking competition, etc).

I’d drive on it, but I would call bwr and claim a safety issue.
