Arrived broken/faulty

One of the washer bearings came disassembled with the bearings missing. Now I'm waiting another two days for a replacement to get my dampers back together. Dissatisfied.

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Very expensive

I would not recommend using this on a car driving in rain/snow/salt.

Works as advertised but unfortunately made of steel which can rust. Only the central part with roller bearings is made of stainless steel. I would not recommend using this on a car that is driving on a rain/snow/salt road. You will be better with Swift sheets.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Quality

Mandatory for coilovers

Combined with some anti-seize tools, adjusting QA1 coilovers is very easy. I just put them on but looks like they will last a long time with bearings built in. I have a Camaro SS from 2002. If you install coilovers on all sides of this vehicle type, you need 3 sets of them. The rear seats need them at the top and bottom, and the front seats need them at the bottom because the top of the spring is fixed in the top saddle.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Requires socket

Eliminated my spring binding.

Bought a pair of these for my BC Racing coilovers. My car has McPherson struts up front, and with coilovers in the original configuration and set to recommended specs, I had nasty spring pins when turning the steering wheel. *ping ping ping ping*. Put those thrust washers on the lower perches, smear them with some lube, ignore the recommended preload and just eliminate any slack, cover things up with some "threading socks" and I've been up and running for quite some time now. . No more spring…

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Some small things
