I have looked at that . but i need to know like how to I grind the metal ring and with what . some people have used the aimsport coilovers from ebay . so they might know some specifics for this application....thanks though
use a dremel tool. u might need 2 or 3 of those grindstone attachments....
thanks , I heard that you could also just bang it off with a flat head and a hammer
hmm, maybe, but the dremel was fun, and easier. >biggrin.gif>
lol. yeah I like tearing stuff up too !!! thanks for your help
what about the rubber rings though . where do they go ?
i only used them for on top of the top cap for the front. and i only used 1 each. just so it turns without making any noise. i also used alot of grease. >tongue.gif>
