Default Re: Suspension/ eibach springs rattle

Post edited has done a search to remind myself what I did.......

You have to make sure the top hat on the front shocks goes on correct.
You should mark the top hat in relation to the bottom cup before removing the old spring.

Do not fit the top cup so that it sits snug on the end of the new coil of the spring.
The shorter coil spring and different postion of the sprin end will cause it to be in a slightly rotated and hence puts it out of alignment.

it's an easy mistake to make.
If this happens the cup/spring rattle and/or the cup catches on the inside of the tower.
