Hi everyone, I was installing the Fox 2.0 coilover and ran into a problem with one of the three screws on top of the coilover body. 2 out of the 3 nuts on top I got into the thread fine but on the third one the whole thread body would spin so I could not tighten the nut in. I am trying to figure out how to get the nut tightened down without removing the whole coilover again. Please let me know what you guys recommend!

Thank you in advance!

 

Can you show us a picture of the one that wont go on? It would worry me if the stud was loose enough to spin.

 

I am at work right now, I will put a picture up later today when I get a chance. But it is the driver side coilover, and the stud is the one closest to the driver side inside. Two out of the three are tightened down and I and just driving it like that. Btw thank you for you fast response !

 

I thought I recognized your name! Bought the set off of my friends who just sold his car and moved oversees. I remember the box had stage3motorsports on it, crazy what a small world. lol

 

anybody

 

Pic?

 

the actual threaded post (bolt) free spins?

 

Id be contacting Fox, for a Replacement!!! Noway, Id roll with that **** on my truck!

Let em replace the bad one!

 

How is the stud held into the trut tower? Is there a bolt on the other side? Or, does it just tighten into the tower until it bottoms out? I'm wondering if he could just use some max strength JB Weld, and thread it in as far as he can, by hand, let it dry, and then try again.

 

Lmao, drive with a strut bolt held by epoxy!


Great solution there!
