Hey Ya'll, I need your help......

I got this noise coming in from one of my Tein HA coilovers......

I look in the trunk and there she was......the top mount ripped through the cover.

the problem is a very small ring.

here are the pics........so basically the cup that comes down is what gives the stut the pressure...alowing you to rebound off the gas filled strut.......the problem is the cup slips through due to ring....SEE PICS*

I took it to my pops shop.....but they were all scared to weld a ring on it because the strut is gas filled and bu welding the deal would get too hottt

anyone have a good TEIN contact....I have been unsuccesfull

I have the Flex and it uses the same retaining rings. It looks pretty weak, but I've never had any problems and I drive my car pretty hard lol. I hope you get your problems fixed, but Tein customer service is sloooooowww.

Hey GATO, how many miles do you have on your coilovers? Hope you get this issue resolved. I love your car's stance.
