D2 Coilovers Problems

[scionxbjustin]

I just installed D2 Coilovers on my box and its making all these clicking noises as I hit a pothole or bump. I heard if you don't tighten the preload or spring tight it will make noise. Is this the noise they speak of? If not please let me know its so annoying and it feels like my cars going to fall apart.

justin is the noise in the front or the rear?

[scionxbjustin]

Oh nice! I was going to call you figure it was late. Its coming from the front.

[Todd2die4]

alright,
so that spring shouldnt be loose, tighten it finger tight. should be that purple ring underneath the spring.
make sure the two bottom rings are tight too, set your height and tap a flat head screwdriver in those notches to make sure its tight

[scionxbjustin]

When you lowered your car with these did you have a problem with crazy POSITIVE camber?

[Todd2die4]

at first yes, but remember they are slotted on the bottom holes
so push the strut and lift the rotor hub, then tighten the bolts (youll see how it works/moves)
then go get alignment

[scionxbjustin]

Nice thanks man. Im digging the ride height just not all that nice.

OH yeah did you pull your plastic panels out from under the front fender? because my tire rubs that

[Todd2die4]

if youre that low, yea i did, I cut mine off, but not all of it
you need to have at least 1/4 of the panel that connects to the side skirt/towards the rear

[scionxbjustin]

What about the front any cutting

[Todd2die4]

i was talking about the front

if you really need me to install/tweak hit me up im free saturday

[scionxbjustin]

Nice! I got the front corrected now its just alignment and I should be good
