Hi guys ,
Just wondered if anyone could help who has or had Ohlins coilovers on their DC5, I bought a set off DFVs from someone a couple of months ago for a pretty good price with a view to getting them serviced and freshened up to put on the car.
However the rear shock bushes are knackered and pretty much crumbling away so I will need replacements but I cannot get an answer from Ohlins about the dimensions of them, I also asked hardrace the divisions of their replacement bushes to see if they may fit but again no response. Does anyone know the dimensions of the rear bushes for the DFV coilovers?
I would also quite like to replace to top pillow balls for new ones just so I am putting on fresh bearing rather then years old ones does anyone know where I can get these as apparently they are not made by ohlins? Or is it a matter of getting whole new top mounts from the likes of cusco?
Finally I have been quoted around £90 + VAT per suspension unit for servicing from a few dealers who have bothered to get back to me can anyone recommend somewhere to get these coilovers serviced?
Sorry for all the questions, I have searched the forum but cannot find any definitive answers for any of my questions. I really want to get these coilovers on as I have another trackday in a couple of months but I don't want to put them on if they aren't 100% perfect.
Thanks in advance for any help/advice!
