    Default Coilover query

    Howdy.

    I have a ZZT231 Celica.
    received a set of coilover today and just in the process of fitting them. However ive hit a brick wall where the manufacter has put the wrong sized lower mount on the coilover. The car side is a 14mm bolt and the strut needs a sleave for the bolt to sit in to help make up the space on the mounting point on the rear arm.

    However the coilover has a 22mm hole and no sleave/spacing. Ive figured i could just chuck 4-8 14mm washers on either side to take up the gap, however how does one make a 14mm bolt sit in a 22mm hole.
    Other option is to cut the toyota base side off and reweld it to the coilover size,

    Advice ?
    Thanks guys

    Being suspension I would not play around with it. Message the person who you got them and see if you can get a right base/bracket.

    Cheers

    Well the idea was just to reweld a different base on, nothing too dramatic that will effect the setup. I think my impatience is what is frustrating me, however ive contacted manufacter and they acknowledged they made a stuff up and have sent out correct pieces.

    Now the waiting game.
