Where can i Get my Coilover rebuild?

I have a set of Tanabe Pro 7s but one of the struts seal is busted. I contacted Tanabe

USA and basically it's gonna cost me a boat load of dilli dough and a long wait time...

I want to get these fixed quick any suggestions?

That setup can only be rebuilt by Tanabe. They will most likely charge you for a new damper, rather than rebuild it. They use seals and a few other parts that are exclusive to there damper.

KW's, AST's, Bilsteins and etc.

Is there a Universal C/O rebuilder?

Since, Megan no longer service their c/o's, but do sell repair parts. I was curious to know if there is company or vendor here on the board who rebuilds all c/o's of all shapes and size?
