Stripped Coilovers???
I think I may be fcked. I have the Ground Contol coilover kit on my 1997 Civic EX. I trying to adjust my suspension to lift the car a little, can't get on the lift at the paint shop. Well to make a long story short, I stripped the allen head bolt that tightens the adjuster plate. Any way to fix without buying a whole new kit? Can I buy just one coilover? I guess I could take the stripped bolt out and put a new one in but I don't have the tools available right now to take off the strut (stuff is in storage about to deploy). Any help will be greatly appreciated. Sorry for the long post.

Sears has a kit that gets any stripped bolt out. Just replace it with a new bolt.

Ok, so I got the old bolt halfway out then the end snapped off so I am going to have to get some EZ-Out's to take it out. It will have to wait I get back from deployment because I am supposed to leave Tuesday.
