Question about cost of coilovers

Cattman gen 2 coilovers.

does anyone know what they cost new?


the shop was installing my rear beam today and there is more damaged then first thought.


i have not gotten all the details yet.. but the rear coilover assembly i think is messed up.

i need to call cattman i guess and see if they have anything parts wise available....

don't class them as Gen 2

get the full retail price for the "cattman coilovers" you own. so what if he has a new gen out. They don't have to know that. Get Brian to give you an Invoice for a pair of "cattman coilovers" at FULL Retail Price.

Mr. catts emailed me back and said that the strut can be replaced.

i gotta think about what i need to do here. It is a major pain in tha a$$ to remove the strut and replace it. and what if it still does not work correctly after that?


man, i hate my insurance company..

if Brian can put a new threaded sleeve on the strut the swap is relatively painless.. they are a pita to get off.

he also said that he might have one or 2 rear strut assemblies still.
(he will check, once he gets back)
i really do not want to try and replace the strut itself, so i am going to try and go the whole rear assembly replacement way.. the insurance company will have to pay for that




or


i can see if that would be plausable thanks..
