Coilover dampening screw stuck.

Frontline17 · Sep 2, 2023

How would one fix a coilover that has a dampening adjustment screw that just spins? It’s stuck in the stiffest setting.

How can it spin and also be stuck?

It’s stuck in the hardest setting due to it being stripped.

If the knob is spinning the threads are going to be toast. You will likely need to send those to be rebuilt. I believe trying to retap those threads would expose the damper fluid, thus ruining the pressure and valving. May want to contact the manufacturer for options.
