spiral tube - Toyota Yaris Forums

thatboyjer · 10-19-2008, 02:16 AM

heyyyy just got a quick question, i just lowered my car yesterday and all is well so far! there is one thing though, i didn't wrap the spiral tube around my coils (there was a black thing on it already though)

was this something i was supposed to buy or was it supposed to come with it in the box?

is this something that i really need? D:

It prevents the coils from slapping together when the suspension cycles. If you don't hear any (metal on metal) noises when going over jarring bumps, I suspect your fine without them.

Tanabe coils come with them, not sure of other brands...

The Eibach Pro-Kit didn't come with any. No problems so far.
