[QUOTE="Jwhit55, post: 298128, member: 436"] Any help will be greatly appreciated!! I'm running fox 2.0 emulsion coilovers on my buggy, so here's my question /problem. The lower springs on my front 2 coilovers are bowing and rubbing the bearing caps. Ive noticed about every other ride i need to tighten the caps due to this. Also, on the passenger side the lower spring seems to be getting into the shaft as well. The shaft has a groove wore into it which has caused the oil to leak out.
