J/K The height adjustment nut is much easier to turn after spraying it down with the water hose. I tried spray cleaner on the other side but still had some binding due to dirt/grit. You gotta be very careful with aluminum threads Oh, I'm also spraying my Wurth anti-corrosion spray wax on suspension hardware while I have the wheels off.

Default No, I wipe them with a cloth every once in a while.

But then again, my rear coilovers are on and off the car more times than I put gas in it. I wish I could post pictures of the front
