Ok, I've been running coil-overs and they worked fine. Today I got progress springs and installed the rears. The passenger side works perfectly fine. The driver side rear however is fucked up. You kno the Piston? Well the shaft does not sit the way its suppose to. When i lower the car, the piston rises as I lower the car. Therefore, the rear passenger side makes crazy clanking sounds and the suspension does not work properly. I know that its some washer I need, but not sure where!

Its like this, i have the bump stop, a rubber piece with a metal tube thingy in the middle, the top mounting plate,then another rubber piece with the metal tube in it, and then the top nut that locks the piston. The problem is occuring with the metal tube thingy and the 2 rubber pieces. Im using tokico illuminas. Any help will be great..thanks.

 

#14 is what you left out.

 

I see that part 14 is a washer. Is it anyone of the washers, or a special one? And does it go under part 16? Thanks.

 

i think # 14 is the part that fits on the taper of the shock rod and keeps it from shooting thru the top hat

 

So its basically a washer that fits under the hat but above the taper?

Yeah, it's the bump stop plate. It's a special 'washer', thicker with a special mating surface for the taper of the piston and bumpstop. I got one from the dealr for about $5, but it's not a part they normally stock (so you'll most likely have to get it the next day).

 

Well i had a bunch of suspension washers, picked a winner and put it in and now the suspension works fine..thanks you guys
