    Think this will work to remove corrosion from thread sleeves? Or send them to Bilstein for service?

    Nobody has a peep to thinking it will work or not?

      It will work (or, for that matter, a brass brush should get a lot of it).

      BUT, once you do this, it's bare steel and it'll rust again FAST. You need to paint or treat the metal afterwards.

        Yeah was thinking that, One of the reasons I hate coil overs, I used to lower it for nice weather and raise it for the winter. It's stuck in winter mode and is now goofy with summer wheels.

        Reason for winter car...lol

          Post pictures so we can see how bad it is. A thread file might be all you need.
