Default are your coilovers LOUD AS HELL?

I installed TEIN Basics almost one month ago on my '00 EX. Drop is one finger in the back, no gap up front. Now I expect some noise here and there, especially when I hit a bump or uneven roads. But there is substantial nosie even when I am backing out of a parking space the driver side rear area is just loud. Like something is knocking or the spring is moving back and forth and hitting something. That's what it sounds like. Anyone have this happen to them? I would think is normal except fo the fact that is ONLY the driver side rear that is making noise.

If it's ONLY the rear driver side, go under there and check all your components. Check if anything is dent. Check if anything is loose. Check if anything is stuck in there. Check if anything is binding or rubbing it. There's lots of possibilities. Narrow them down.

yea, i'll check to see if anythign is loose. It sounds liek the spring is knocking on something. If so, not sure how to fix that. But I'll take a look and see if anything look sout of place.
