I installed
Koni Red adjustable shocks
1.5'' Drop B&G Springs
Urethane bushing kit.
now all brand new mind u. when i go over a big bump is it allowed to sound like its bottoming out on the shocks..like its just a thud..is it due to it being lowered..that it amplifies the sound of going over bumps in the road. and is it allowed to sqeak when its new..if i apply pressure. like I assembled them..Exactly like your supposed to. and same with install. curious to see if somethings wrong here.
Im guessing the noise like creaking..is just the springs n shocks settling?

bushings or ball joints for sure....mine started creaking when i lowered my car and i figured it was just bushings....i found out it was a siezed ball joint after it snapped. they took a beating after having to seperate them twice with a fork seperater...once for axles and once for lowering it.

ok I've got a problem. Any help with this one would be great!! i lowered the car. and 3 of the sides are perfect! the rear passenger just wont drop to height. an when it does it doesnt last. I'll hit a bump n hear * CLUNK CLUNK* like the shock is jumping around or something. Any idea's as to why its not working right or what that clunk might be?

they are brand new..and already done that it works fine. if that center nut isnt tightened all the way down..that would prob cause loud clunking eh! im thinkin that might be it..but i cant get a wrench on it... cuz of the interior panels..but think that could be it?

how can't you get a wrench on it? what kind or wrenches are you using? you shouldn't have to much of a problem getting a wrench to the rear struts...i've never heard that problem before....i can get to mine with an air ratchet
