my 20 month old -60mm spring are touching each other cause a loud harsh bang from the littest crack in the road to be heard althrough the car!
Do those rubber spring asisters work or will they just break up in months!
or should I just go and get a pair of new -40mm front springs?big new speed ramps at work mean have to rase car 20mm+

from my experience its normally the damper bottoming out wen u hear bangs over bumps. have u changed these to the correct ones for the springs?

its the shocks alright. not every shock is abble for a 60mm drop. try a bilstein, doesn't even have to be ajdustable :D

nope not them the shocks are bilstein so it has to be springs, as the side it's coming from he coils touch (nearly all of them)where as the other side where there is no noise they are not!
Spoken to some guy at the tuning web site and he seems to agree!
