Found this fun fact, I’m sure some may know but I sure didn’t. BC is the back bone behind most coilovers made in Tiawan. BC racing makes: Megan, Buddyclub, K-sport, D2, and a few other coilover’s. that are based out of Taiwan. Even though they are all made by the same company each coilover has it’s own “short cuts” help you to save or not to save !!?? Here is a little comparison between a BC coil and Megan: [http://www.modernperformance.com/blog/differences-between-bc-and-megan-coilovers](http://www.modernperformance.com/blog/differences-between-bc-and-megan-coilovers) It’s funny that even though they are put together in the same factory they are develope differently. This is a good look at Name Brand vs Generic and the differences made between two of the same. ---

from reading that article - sooo, get a welder and reinforce it? Our coils don’t have mounts for sway bar end links, so that is irrelevant. And big deal with the threads… ---
