Aldan American: Using a Coilover Spring Retainer

Coiled and Ready to Strike

In this episode, Garrett at Aldan American goes over the Aldan American one piece spring retainer. This one piece spring retainer uses a set screw and a pinch clamp style design. This style retainer works as both a spring retainer and lock nut to secure the retainer on the shock body.

Once your spring retainer is installed, your preload is adjusted on your coilover shock; tightening the set screw is the final step in securing your spring retainer on the coilover.

This one piece spring retainer is used to hold the coil-spring on the coilover shock. The spring retainer is also used to adjust spring preload that will also raise or lower your ride height on your coilover shock.
