That's why im debating Bilstein B14 coilovers or Bilstein shock and spring combo..
Ground control has a nifty remedy for this in that they have a set screw in the collar so that you can take the screw out and spread the collar open a tad if it gets seized. I've had this happen too and it takes a lot of cleaning to get them to move again.
