Rear supension problems (illuminas)

[jtmny1999]

Hi to all, well after 3 years of installing front 240z 5-way illumina inserts in the rear(Mr2 fronts, Sectioned), today when I was driving on the freeway my car felt like the rear was skating around when I hit bumps. At first I thought my front or back wheels were loose or somehow my suspension became loose.

 

My car felt like when I first had purchased it and my shocks where all out, my concern is that my inserts are somewhat new and it sucks if they went bad. I tried pushing my left 1/4 panel up and down and I hear/feel no absorption from the sock. When I do it on the right I can hear the sock hiss and more stiffer when it travels up and down. I even adjusted the sock to setting 5 and is loose. Has anyone ever experience anything like this? Do this inserts have some type of warranty? Man this blows =/

Tokicos have a lifetime warranty. My experience is that when they blow they shoot oil all over the inner fender area. Sounds like you blew the left one, if you don't feel any damping at all that's a pretty good indicator.

Thanks for the info, looks like I will try to contact the seller and see what he can do for me. I believe HitachiUSA will also replace it. But I read from other guys the turn around time was about 3 months.
