Default Installing Skunk2 Full Coilver system help.

Me and my brother just got done installing the full Skunk2 Pro Series onto in 2001 Gsr. Now there are thumping noise coming from the rear whenever the car hit bumps. The ride is horrible and is bumpy. We basically use everything from the stock strut. The whole dust cover, bump stopper. Do we have to cut the bump stopper in half, and could we use the oem dust cover? Someone please reply.

Call skunk on how much you need to cut the OEM bump stopper...some companie's vary from others.

Because the OEM bump stop is longer than what you need (because of the longer suspension travel) - it's longer. This can also be causing the noise as well.

Hope this helps, and take some pics!
