Frozen Coilovers
I am about to put Coilover sleeves with Tokico HPs on my '97 Del Slow SI.
I decided to go with coilovers because I am going to need to adjust the rde height from summer-winter. Northern Va got hammered with snow this year, and I spend the summer in richmond at home when school is out.
I am wondering if theres any way to cover up the area of the coilovers that get dirty which results in them not being adjustable anymore. I was wondering if anyone knew how to fix this problem, i'm even about to ghetto-rig it and just duct tape those suckers up so dirt can't get to them. Bad idea? Hhaha I dont know, I need some feedback

Or just clean the threads off once a month and spray 'em down with WD40... That's what I do... Then again I have GCs and they're basically impossible to get frozen like that.
my front left skunkwork coilover is frozen, all the others are still good. should i just soak it in wd40 before adjusting? i need to raise my car before putting on my lips, and i can't adjust the damn coilover.

That's probably the best way, just mainaining them. You could try to cover them with something, but that could run the risk of trapping dirt/moisture underneath and making the problem worse.
