did you install the coilovers correctly?

for example w/my Ground Controls there is a rubber slab that you wrap around the shock, it goes in btwn the threaded body and the shock to accomidate for the difference in diameter, it is there to keep the threaded body from shifting, and claning against the shock...that may be what the clanging noise is.

it sounds more like its comming from the top plate of the coil
