      55 .... Thanks! Def the most and most consice information I've read so far. Some of the links are dead ends (of course, there pretty old) unfortunately but I'm going to attempt to connect some of the businesses and I may have a lead on a spring found on ebay. Thanks again

      You're being paranoid.  Random and light brake cleaner overspray is relatively harmless.   Nope.  MAYBE you washed the oil off of 'em.

      You can look thru this old posting from 2007, there still may be some useful links in there...... the last member I can remember who did coilovers was Imp558, that was near 8 years ago....   or this one....

      White..  This is what I'm learning but as you mentioned, it appears it would be a (very?) deep dive and likely time consuming endeavor. I'm exploring a replacement but they are scarce. It would cool to construct the coil strut and install but there is just no enough info to feel comfortable attending it. Thanks for the information and insight.

      All I remember about that was at one point people figured out how to build rear coil overs out of mostly off the shelf parts. There was always plenty of discussion around ride quality, and if the stock upper mounts could take the added forces, but to my knowledge no one ever had issues with that part of it.  I was never into lowering my car so I can't speak to it, but I see no reason why it couldn't be used to bring the car back up to factory height as well. It might take a heap of searching old threads on here but the information is likely still around from then.
