Welcome to the JIC Magic USA maintenance and overhaul center. Here you will find the necessary items that you will need to send to get started on the coilover rebuild and maintenance process. Please follow the instructions on servicing your coilovers and submit your information. If you have any technical difficulties with submitting your information, please call us at (626)-576-0900 or email us at service@jic-magic.com.

PLEASE READ THESE FOLLOWING FAQ BEFORE FILLING OUT A RETURN FORM.

-What does JIC USA do to your coilovers when we rebuild?
Basically, it is replacing moving parts and parts that will wear under heavy use. When we receive your dampers, our highly skilled technicians will open up the coilover, replace the piston if needed, replace the main bearing, apply a new seal, put in a new o-ring, put in new oil, and give it a gas charge. At the same time, our technicians will check to see if there are any other parts that will be needed to replaced. When you get your damper back, it will be brand new internally and it will like the first day you received them.

-When I get my Return Authorization Number and the 'go-ahead' to send in the coilovers, what parts of the kit should I send?
When sending in your coilovers for a rebuild, it is important that you send in only the dampers. Meaning you must remove the uppermount, springs, spring seats, seat locks, and lower bracket before sending the dampers in. This will speed up the rebuild turn-around time and cut down costs on the price. Additionally, when removing your coilover uppermount, please use an impact gun to remove the top nut. Not using an impact wrench and instead using a handtool will cause the shaft to spin and eventually come out. If you would like to send in your coilovers with everything still attached to it, you may do so for an additional fee of $80.00. This will also insure proper set up and spring pre-load. Please clean the coilovers to the best of your ability. The cleaner the coilover will be easier for our technicians to service your coilovers. Cleaning services are available for an additional charge.

-How long does it usually take for a rebuild?
The time that it takes for a rebuild does depend when it comes in but generally takes between 1-2 weeks (minus the shipping transit times). If your vehicle is needed for an event and the coilovers are necessary, please give enough time (4-5 weeks in advanced) to send in your coilovers. We will do our best to get you the coilovers in time.

-When I send my coilovers in for rebuild, can I have it custom valved as well?
The answer is Yes! This will be the perfect opportunity for you to get your coilovers custom valved by our highly skilled technicians. An additional cost of $100.00 per damper is applied when each corner is being rebuilt. Please contact us directly when requesting a custom valved set up.

-My damper is blown, can't I just do a gas charge?
For the most part, no. It is not as easy as just doing a gas charge. A gas charge is for two reason, customization for a harder damper set up OR if the customer accidentlly released the gas from the valve on the damper. The gas charge fee applies to customization or accidental gas release. Gas charge is already included with the standard rebuild.

-Are all coilovers sent to JIC USA, able to be rebuilt?
This depends on the condition and model of your coilovers. If you have taken good care of your coilovers and they physically look like they will still be able to be rebuilt, then yes. However, from time to time we receive coilover kits that have excessive amounts of wear and tear and/or come in with physical damage. JIC USA CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT EVERY COILOVER SET THAT COMES IN CAN OR WILL BE REBUILT. Again this depends on the condition that the customer sends them in. Therefore, JIC USA has a trade in program that offers customers deep discounts so that they may be able to replace their sets with a brand new set.

-ONLY MONOTUBE DAMPERS ARE SERVICABLE.
If you have an older set of twintube dampers they are not servicable, they are welded by design and the gas and oil are mixed inside of the damper. These were not designed to be serviced and we cannot rebuild them.
