Hey guys need a bit of advice (help) lol. May just be a simple easy fix but didn't really think i would need to tamper or mess with the design of the coilover.

Anyways, i received my s14 fortune auto 500 series coilovers today via UPS! :D!!!

So the problem I'm encountering is the stock OEM bolt that runs through the spindle does not fit the coilover mounting bracket. The bolt is WAY to thick to fit through the holes it comes with. I'm kind of confused here.

The red circle represents the size of the bolt that is OEM that FITS the spingle.

I didn't want to tamper with the coilover as i may void the warranty and also didn't think it was necessary xD!

Thanks guys!

I would honestly call up fortune first since you do have a one year warranty!

pluss i heard there servises are verry friendly and helpfull :)

im sure theyll simply replace it for the actual sized one =]

You probably got shipped S13 brackets, as their 2 holes up front are smaller. 12mm vs 14mm for the S14

That's probably it. Just my luck!
