i went on a trip to see my girlfriend who goes to school at chapel hill this weekend and i really have to vent about my coilovers. THEY SUCK!!!! yea, they make the car look really good and all, but riding on the interstate sucks with stock shocks. i hit bridges where it has a lip and my speaker box flew up in the air, ripped the power wire out, and blew my fuse under the hood for my amp. it was not a fun ride listening to treble for 2 hours. oh well, guess its something i gotta live with until i get new shocks. thanks for lettin me get that outta my system. anyone else need to vent then nows the time.

Well I'm going back to the shop to have it looked at again. They think the the metal stoper on top of the springs is making the noises. You see when it turns the metal and the spring both turns different directions. Must be some tension between them to cause the noise. I've had it lubed up already and it's not helping. I should of just got TEINS or JIC's since I used a lot of frigging dough already.
Well I'm glad that I'm not the only one with ground control coilovers on. Do you knwo anyone elkse whith this problem with the same coilovers as us. I see that we both have the same noise in away but what do you plan to do to get rid of it. Remember a car is suppose to be quite when turning. Plus after market suspension should improve things or at least be equal. I feel scammed right now shiet. |
