Hey guys, thanks to one of the boys on here ive got my hands on a set of HKS EVO8 Coilovers, however one of the front ones are leaking apparently.

Can anyone recommend the best option to get it sorted? I was about to send it to Gold Coast suspension for them to look at it but im expecting a hefty price tag... Are there any other options or does someone know a shop that can do it for a decent price? Thanks

Also, to make the rears fit in the RVR, lll need to buy a rear adapter from the States.... Was about to buy them, but they want $154 including postage for just the rear set.
Has anyone got any other options or ones laying around?

These are the ones:

Maybe a motorbike shop. I assume they are nitrogen pressurised.
once the gas is out, im sure there isnt much too them.
if its leaking to the external, then its the top seal. Not the dust seal at top, there is a couple of seals and bushes in the top of the tube. Well there is on a motorbike anyway. Will be pretty similar.
 
So ive made a fair few phone calls and finally got a guy a W and W Suspension in Brisbane who said he'd be able to fix my HKS coil overs, but my mate took them in to him, he took one look at it and said he cant fix them as the shaft is too thick... That ol' chestnut hey?!

So im still on the search for an option to fix these before they go in the bin... And i really dont want to do that.

Any more suggestions?

And Jack, i did what you said but my mate who owns a bike shop wasnt much help either :/
 
I asked ol mate for you Lars but he's too busy.
And don't bin them, I'll buy em off ya.
