jdnet Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 check your ball joint and tie rod and any other suspension part. Did you put in new spring isolators or just reuse the old ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used my old springs.. not taking about the springs, i'm talking about the isolators (not sure what they call em here but it's the rubber or polyurethane pad that goes on both ends of the spring) were they in good condition when you reinstalled or did you put in new ones?

Are u really sure the strange sound because of Shocks? Take the help of experience mechanical guy. Go for a test drive. (Once I have experience a sound from back of the car because of a large silencer Barrel was used when replaced the old original silencer barrel. It hits the other parts) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
