Title: function and form coils Clunking noise ????? Post by: paulonfiya on January 29, 2012, 02:41:22 AM I just installed the coilovers 2 months and the suspensions are making a clunking noise like the coilovers are blown and bottoming out but the ride is not bouncy. I haven't touched the preload at all. And I'm not even dropped that much.

Be patient and people will try and help. It's also a good idea to try and provide as much information as possible. Where is the noise coming from? Front, rear, all four corners? What have you checked since you started hearing the noise? Title: Re: function and form coils Clunking noise ?????

Alex, that only happens when you're dumped or have the Ingalls front camber kit. From the pictures he's posted of his car, it doesn't seem that he's so low that it would cause his upper front ball joint to hit the shock tower. Anyway, he was vague about the details, so it's hard to assume what the problem is. It could be as simple as a nut that wasn't torqued properly and worked itself loose.

Title: Re: function and form coils Clunking noise ????? Post by: paulonfiya on February 04, 2012, 08:38:21 AM yea on rear passenger side, i havent fixx it yet, i tried to tightning up but it was tight already. next plan to take off then re install it.....
Title: Re: function and form coils Clunking noise ????? Post by: timot_one on February 04, 2012, 11:08:53 AM That's your best bet. Take it out, make sure the top hat is tight and then reinstall. It may turn out that you may find some damage.
Title: Re: function and form coils Clunking noise ????? Post by: paulonfiya on February 05, 2012, 01:34:51 AM yea
