Coilover Rebuild

[-33-]

Ive got a set of TEIN HR coilovers which are in very good condition, except the strut is bent by about 1 cm on one of the rears.

I'm thinking of getting it repaired IF its worth it.

a) where could i get it done in melbourne?

b) how much would it cost?

c) should i just buy new ones?

My rear left hand side has "popped" and oil has gone everywhere so i need mine fixed aswell. Is there a good place nation wide that repairs these Tein coiloers anyone?

Well after a similar enquiry in Adelaide, I was told the only place in Australia is through Fulcrum suspension in QLD. So if you can find somewhere else, let me know

Fulcrum is the begining middle and the end for rebuilding tiens.

they are the importer of tien.

any mechanic can pull apart the shock body but they WILL sent it away to QLD

a) where could i get it done in melbourne? no where

b) how much would it cost? depends on if shaft is bent or the body is bent aswell

they will pull it apart check and put it on a lathe to measure all tolerances. $100+

c) should i just buy new ones? send it away your self and see what they have to say.

HR's are ancient and not worth the effort. you will find alot more than the shaft will need attention. If you are determined any decent motorcycle suspension specialist will be able to do the job,there are far more around than auto specialists.
