Default PSS9 help!

Hey i recently installed a set of the pss9 coilovers and i was wondering how to put the adjusting knobs back on(little metal rings with the numbers on it). I pulled them off hard so where the little metal knob goes, it ripped some metal off. Sorry this is really hard to explain, just want to know how to put them back on. Ill post some pics up if that would help

there is a small hole with a set screw 1/16 size. you need to loosen this screw make sure the thicker lower ring with the slash is turned all the way clock wise and the square shaft is also all the way clock wise. this is setting "9"....

loosen the set screw make sure the line of the lower thicker ring matches up to "9" on the top part and lock down the set screw on the flat part of the shaft.

so you start from 9 and then work your way around. next time put a dab of loctite blue on it. the amount you should apply is get a needle dip it in a puddle of loctite and that is the amount you need. If you put too much yoru going to strip the head of the set screw if you ever have to take it apart again.

I think you mean you broke the tiny roll-pin. Is that correct?

ok look at that coin w/square hole in the middle turn it to it's side (edge) there should be a tiny hole in that hole is a tiny set screw 1/16 size head. you need to loosen that screw so it will slip onto the square shaft of the strut then tighten that set screw up again to hold it inplace.
