well I picked up a set of these (locally was cheaper than importing from the USA)
Anyway's after much stuffing around I was still getting spring binding which was causing a lot of noise in the cabin.
I emailed whiteline AU and they responded saying that they have put this product on hold until a revised product is bought out.
I think the problem is two fold:
1) There is not enough clearance between the bottom camber plate and the top spring perch of the coilovers - easily solved but adding a washer between the supplied spherical bearing adaptor and the perch.
2) I am not sure but I think the spherical bearing may be sticking under load, it spins fine when there is no weight on it - kinda hard to tell thou
So I am waiting for Whiteline to tell me what their plan is...

I get a lot of spring binding. I will try the washer and see if that helps. I am thinking the binding may have caused it, but I actually had the shaft of one of my KW coilovers snap... and the other side bend. I had them rebuilt and reinstalled. I am still getting the binding.
pic, because it did happen
also, anyone know if I can get replacement hardware for these? specifically the studs, deep nuts, and spherical bearing adapter

That's some pretty gnarly carnage.
As for the hardware, Whiteline should be able to get it for you. Otherwise take some measurements of what you need and just order it from McMaster-Carr
