Ok, let me explain this thoroughly. I removed my front suspension from my car because I was spraying the wheel wells with some rubberized undercoat. I removed the Shocks & Springs; I have Tein springs with the stock shocks. I've had the springs installed for nearly a year and a half now and I've never had any problem at all. Now, when I re-installed the suspension, I started to hear this noise every time I turn the steering wheel. It only makes the noise when I am pulling out of my driveway and turning the wheel, stuff like that. Only if I'm like under 15 MPH, then I hear the noise, but if I'm going any faster than that then it's not making the noise. Any suggestions on what that could be?
-Thanks, Ryan This post has been edited by str8thugginit4ya: Mar 3, 2010 - 11:34 AM |

Hmm, that is correct. Unless you took the assembly itself apart.
Your lugs tight enough? Does it sound like tire rub? Or a metal ping? Did you bend your hub dustshield and its dragging on the rotor? I would suggest taking it all apart agian, regreasing all that requires it, check it twice agian, and put it back together. |

Not at all tire rub, and it doesn't sound like any metal rubbing. Almost like a stretching rubber, or something of the sort. -Ryan |
