Play in absorbers

[donkeykong]

Hi all,

Looking for some anwsers, discovered i have some play on both front wheels, found out the play in in the shock absorbers, tein monoflex is what i have. Play is is not in the lower bracket but the tube itself, probably damaged? Anybody know something about this?

Thanks in advance

If there's play in the shock itself (between rod and tube) then it's knackered.

Refurbish or replace.

Thanks for the feedback, though i read a article on the clubrsx webboard where there are people with the same thing. while in the air and there is no preload on the springs they have play, they were talking about progress coilovers and buddyclubs. the play is there when in the air, so no preload. progress says the coilovers are fine. anybody know about this??
