I have a 94 prelude S. I installed a set of Tokico struts. They were not the coilover type. Just springs and struts. It sounds like the spring is knocking around in the rear when going over bumps. I did cut the bump stops in half and did everything that I supposed to do. Is there any other way to get rid of that noise? And can anyone tell me the difference between an F22a and a F22b? Thanks everyone that replies.

 

did you make sure you reinstalled the bushings between the top hat and springs

 

Yes I did. Everything was put on right. During my suspension class we took everything apart again to see why it was knocking and we couldn't figure it out. Even my instructor was confused.

 

and it is a f22a1 question. my h23 went out and i picked up a f22 pretty cheap. i wanted to put it in my si. Will it be a direct fit? if not, what changes need to be made?

 

I had a similer proplem but with my front shocks and springs, (I had to add a few washer spacers on the top joint were the new shock connects to the old boot? not sure what that area is called. If you take it apart there should be a washer lookin thing just add 2 same size or how ever much you think it needs.)
