Default Lowering

Just bought KYB fr shocks Lowered the front of my 86 Integra
1 1/2 inches
Lowered rear 1 1/2 inches
When i hit small pot holes big bang from front of vehicle
shocks are for lowered cars. Also when go around corners slowly fr end there is a tapping noise not visable marks from components hitting each other.

if the shocks are for lowered car, they're probably designed to work with much stiffer springs. what you're describing could be the shocks bottoming out.

Your springs are too soft. What kind do you have?
