leaking coilovers

[otter]

I bought my pulsar last august wid jic coilovers. 5 months later the front ones are leaking! anything i can do ie, repair the buggars?
After seeing how much the they are new i dont fancy buying new ones.
Or does any1 recommend any other coilovers i could buy new :? instead?

You should be able to get a repair kit from JIC best to try and get in contact with them direct
You will find that this will happen with most adjustable height coilovers that are used on the road as they have no dust covers to protect the stanchions/seals from damage from road grit etc so they wear out and leak quickly

You could try emailing them info@jic-magic.com i would make them mail for the attention of ben as he seems to know his stuff. There should be an id number on your shocks.

If you can take out the insert damper,
you would be able to find out the serial number or
type of the damper.

This is what JIC told me to do if i wnated to know more about the shocks amd costs etc of repairs/replacment.

Thanks
