Default Tein coils+edfc Spinning?

that odd ganador tower brace i have fixes my prob.

however for others i got a fairly simple solve.

look at the tower brace...all you need is to run washers down to the top of the shock bump "green part you see when u look in the middle" you'll see its got a flat surface. Just pile nylon spacers in there and then once ur flush with the tower brace top run a plate to your shock tower bolts. This'll provide some pinching power and the prob should be over. I think a trip to any size hardware store should have u covered. grainger would be a good bet. Also if your a little more ingenious you could use that plate to fit around the top of the tower and support your towers so they dont get mushroomed like they can with no support.

I'll build up this kit and take some pics so you can see what im talking about. It's fairly easy.

i made a set of brackets that mount to the 2 shock tower bolts and holds the actual motor in place.

yeah it says in the manual 'can be avoided with periodic inspection'. they do sell a 'strut kit' though. its supposed to stop the rotation somehow.
