when i had my H&R race springs on stock struts i would feel every crack, bump, pothole on the road.

here's my issue: now, i'm running H&R race springs w/ KONI yellows and it still feels the same way when i drive on rough roads. maybe because it's a "race" application? but i'm still getting that loud *** clunk. i took off the top of my del sol just to see if it was that but i was wrong. why is my suspension making this noise?

i searched... and i read "trailing arm bushings" all my bushings from upper to lower control arm are good. trailing arms, UCA, LCA... none ripped.

any suggestions or am i completely normal?

 

Do you have bump stops. Did you install all the washers when you put it back together. I have h&r race and mine just rides rough. No loud clunk noises here

everything is correct. it happened when i had stock shocks on h&r race springs also. i unno what the hell is going on. lol

 

the loud clump is that big rubber peice hitting something. its call the bump stop. i bet your car is kinda slammed right. you're suppose to cut that thing in half which I didnt so my car clunks too. on the freeway on bad road it goes clunk clunk clunk clunk etc etc

i did cut it in half...

 

?

 

open your hood and look right where your shock comes through and see if you have dents or holes from your camber kit...my camber kit hits the inside of the fender well and that is what causes my clunking and my car is dropped. this happens in my civic as well with the same setup

 

that, or see if your exhuast is hitting somewhere

 

had a stock exhaust... still happened.

it's comming from my rears. everything is bolted up torqued to spec. =/ more ideas... i'm going to tear it down on the weekend.

 

is your shock out? could be blown and you could be just bottoming out and that would make your ride shitty to

 

i have h&r races w/ koni yellows too. what setting are your shocks set at?

 

i dont know if this is pheasable but could it be that his shocks are just not seated right? never really heard this problem..what size tire are you running?

 

i was getting a loud pop sound under breaking when i had bad front control arm bushings. Replaced em and all is good.
