    WTF? lol

    Good thing you have Koni yellows to replace them with.
    (Edit: hoping that those aren't the Yellows)

        x2 that shock probably isn't even blown because it wasn't dampening anything Someone assembled it wrong.

              Using no bumpstops on your Koni's will void your warranty....and they can tell.

                    Who installed the shock? You? I hope not. Doesn't look like a hard fix though.

                        That happened to me the day we first installed my suspension. I trusted my friends, who had done it before. They forgot both washers... both sides. My hood has beestings now. We redid the installation in the bank parking lot (drove there to get money for my friend, since I was buying the stuff from him).

                        No harm... it worked. Those things are still working on my friend's car.

                          We installed H&R full coilovers on Ryaniskingofyou's car, and had the tophat assembly wrong on one corner on the front. We lowered the car thinking we were done and the piston rod just stuck up about 6 inches. Good thing we had the hood open.
