IIRC, JIC does not offer rebuilding services for the FLT-A1 coilovers. Instead, they recommend replacing the dampers altogether and just reusing the springs, perches, tophats and base. If you have the FLT-A2s, they may be able to rebuild them but it won't be cheap. You're probably better off spending the monies on a new coilover set like the KWs or Bilstein PSS9

Stay away from Cusco Zero 2Rs, those things can't be rebuilt either and you'll have to change the dampers if they do go bad.
