I have a JIC MAGIC FLT-A2 FR coilover that is bunk. JIC MAGIC is no more. I did buy a replacement for mad cheap when they were on the outs, but dropped an engine block on it on sunday, needless to say it's no more good. Now I am back to square1 but without even the horrible service they displayed.
#1-does anyone know someplace I can get my front struts rebuilt
if not
#2-is anyone else in this predicament? maybe someone has extras?
#3- I was thinking of just getting someone elses "part out" of similar quality for the front, I do not think this would be a bad thing but I have never run two brands front/back.
#4- any other suggestions???

Thanks, Chad D.

 

Isn't JIC Magic America still in business? If so, will they rebuild your damper for you?

 

They don't reply to e-mails and their phone # is not in service, soooo i'm not sure?????
Does anyone know?

 

I just called the number on their website and got through....... (626) 576-0900

 

thanks, i'm retarted and been calling in the morning past two days. the sun is not up there yet.





....i hate dealing with them, here goes.....

 

Good luck. See if they will provide a shock dyno as part of the rebuild. I am dying to see one.

EDIT: If you can justify the cost, I'd probably suggest getting all four dampers rebuilt at the same time. Otherwise, your freshly rebuilt shock will likely not match the damping characteristics of your three worn shocks.

 

Anwering machine......argh.
Broda, I will defenately get them all done if I can, last winter they were a pain in the ***, then in the spring someone sent me the link to the Japan site. I got one new one for very cheap instead of dealing with the bullshite, but that is not an option now. When I spoke to them (usa) during the summer to get the other 3 redone, they quoted me at 150$ a rebuild.
a shock dyno would be nice if I am matching all shocks.
