Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior suspension

i just installed my new coilovers and i am getting a cluck noise in the front suspesion every time i go over a bump i thought it might be that my socks are bottoming out but i don't know. i have skunk2 coilovers with the stock shocks. any idae on what that could be

how low did you go? if you went really low then it could be bottoming out 'cuz the stock shox can't handle that kind of load

you might be hitting your bump stops.

well, i installed mine a couple weeks ago and i have some occasional noise from the rear when i go up or down driveways. i rechecked all the bolts and they were all torqued to toyota spec and the coilovers had no signs of improper installation. my brother, who's installed quite a few suspensions and is a mechanical engineer, said it's normal. as long as it's not a constant noise (like hearing it all the time while driving) it should be okay.

thats the thing though it happens everytime i go over a bumpy road but only in the front. i installed this sunday

you may have to remove them to be sure EVERYTHING was torqued properly and installed correctly. if installed professionally then bring it back. if you did it yourself then it should be a 30-45 min job if you have the right tools. good luck.
