NamorNhoj Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 (edited) I recently came up on a good deal on a nice set of Tein coilovers, and I was wondering if the McKinney strut sleeve kit would be compatable with these coilovers. I understand their own coilover conversion kit was designed for Megan coilovers, but are the thread pitches on the sleeves different / should this matter?? Might be a bit of a silly question - just asking to make sure! Thanks! Edited June 16, 2013 by NamorNhoj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raven12 Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Thread pitches need to match. Find out if the Tein ones are they same as the Megan's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NamorNhoj Posted June 17, 2013 Author Share Posted June 17, 2013 Did some research. Seems as if the Tein's have a different pitch than the Megan coilovers, so I guess the tubes won't match up. And considering the tubes made by Stance / McKinney limit you to their pitches, I guess the coilovers you could use on these tubes are a lot more limited than I had realized. Dammit!

raven12 Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 You could always get your own tubes made. Stop by a machine shop and let them know what you would like to do. They just need all the details. Look over the coilover tube thread. It should give some basic steps, and you adapt where you need to your specific application. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
