After installing my new springs, it is hard not to notice that they squeak a lot! I've been driving on them for a while thinking that the squeaking will go away once they have settled, but that has not been the case.

Is there a step i missed during installation that could have eliminated this problem before it started?

What can I do to make the squeaking go away?

Aside from the squeeking, I am verry happy with the ride, performance and looks that these springs have.

Thanks agian in advance,
NOOB

PS: The springs are on a 90 HB Si (if that makes a diff)

 

YUP! you missed something. There is a step where they say you should wrap the spring in spots occationally to eliminate spring chatter. They are well aware that thier spings make noise... you should try race springs ;-) they have tons of chatter. they recommed putting some kind of rubber tubing over their springs if they are too loud.

 

I don't know, mine don't squeak.

 

Are there some specific brands of spring wrap that you could suggest? Oh, by the way...the strange thing is that only the front squeek really bad. I don't think the rears squeak at all. And I haven't installed any wrap or grease on the rear.

i would just put a lil grease on em....i have neuspeed sports on my ef hatch and i love em and have never ever heard em squeek

 

also try this:

-put the car on stands
-loosen the lca bolts on one corner
-use a jack to raise that corner till it barely lifts the car off the stand
-re-torque the lca bolts
-repeat on all corners

 

This may not apply to what ur hearing, but on my prelude wen i turned left it would sound like my back right spring was squeaking really bad, i would hear it over my radio which i have blaring all the time. When my slave cylinder broke my friend drove it and hurd it and wen he lifted it up it was a heat shield rubbing the crap out of my exhaust, so maybe that is your problem

 

nevermind i dont think what i said just applied because u say the squeaking is up front, my baddddd haha
