ugh forget the warranty.

anyways i had finally given up all hope on unseizing the coils and put it back together as i had taken the spring off with top hat. blah la la. i bolted everything back on the car, i told myself one last time i wasnt going to let a wimpy seized coilover get the best of me today so i went to the basement and grabbed the big red plumbers pipe wrench and put it around the top 2 lock rings and turned..to my surprise it moved.. so i finally got it unsiezed. now my wheels are back on it and the car is sitting on the ground. tomorrow i do the job of measuring & making sure all 4 corners are at least measuring the same on both sides.

im thinking all the PB blaster and even half a quart of engine oil i slabbed on the threads finally made its way to the threads and let me move it.
