Need help: Banging sound in front end after suspension / driveline refresh. - dspang 2014-12-07 13:44:52 (311 views)
- UPDATE: Banging is gone after shortening strut ends. - dspang 2014-12-15 21:22:13 (176 views)
- Mysterious noises are the worse. (I'm tracking one down today.) - .jonah 2014-12-07 15:13:04 (218 views)

    - you know you can remove the coilover without removing that top control arm cap right? - S4gasm (LotR) 2014-12-08 12:45:08 (247 views)
      - Don't remember seeing access holes for the top two nuts in the engine bay.  -  dspang  2014-12-08 13:17:22 (212 views)
        
        the top of the strut shaft does not exceed it's mounted position. It's possible you did not tighten  -  S4gasm (LotR)  2014-12-08 16:50:32 (196 views)
        
        The shaft is limited in the upward movement by the shoulder on the strut shaft.  -  dspang  2014-12-08 17:44:36 (192 views)
        
        Nut locations.   -  .jonah  2014-12-08 14:34:11 (265 views)
        
        yep, those are it, and the rubber plugs you will destroy attempting to remove lol   -  S4gasm (LotR)  2014-12-08 16:54:05 (185 views)
        
        Speaking of which, I need to order some new ones.   -  .jonah  2014-12-08 17:18:20 (230 views)

        Part number for OE Gorilla Tape? ;)   -  .jonah  2014-12-08 18:47:06 (181 views)
        
        ace hardware x=eleventy   -  S4gasm (LotR)  2014-12-09 12:18:13 (167 views)
        
        Will have to remember that for next time. Luckily pinch bolts were easy to remove at this point.   -  dspang  2014-12-08 15:29:15 (181 views)
    - Is the thread on the new shock longer than on the old one? - .jonah 2014-12-07 17:59:26 (233 views)
    - Part number on the spring seat looks to be 8D0-412-111C, doesn't match what's supposed to be there. - dspang 2014-12-07 15:51:46 (230 views)
      - No...  -  QCRAZY  2014-12-07 21:10:28 (238 views)
        
        I'll measure in the morning, anyone have the stock thread measurement handy?  -  dspang  2014-12-07 21:24:40 (203 views)
        
        I can measure tomorrow.   -  .jonah  2014-12-07 21:55:30 (204 views)
        
        Anyone able to measure their shocks?   -  dspang  2014-12-08 20:35:38 (185 views)
        
        30mm / 1 3/16"   -  .jonah  2014-12-08 21:40:36 (211 views)
        
        Appreciate the help. That's 8mm / 5/16" shorter from the shoulder up.  -  dspang  2014-12-08 21:49:35 (195 views)
        
        My Eibachs measure 38mm from the end of the strut to the shoulder.   -  dspang  2014-12-08 07:14:28 (206 views)
        
        Mike at PureMS was kind enough to measure an Eibach kit in stock, measured same as mine.  -  dspang  2014-12-08 15:09:04 (206 views)
        
        Called Eibach today and sent them pictures, we'll see what they come up with.   -  dspang  2014-12-09 21:02:35 (180 views)
        
        Are you tightening the nut all the way down?  -  Louie  2014-12-08 16:59:20 (193 views)
        
        They were tight, but that shouldn't make a difference with how far up the strut shaft is pushed.   -  dspang  2014-12-08 21:03:49 (186 views)
- Something that prominent should be easy to find, where the coilovers used by any chance? - S4gasm (LotR) 2014-12-07 14:41:38 (213 views)
  - did you lower it? could it be fender rub? - nehalem 2014-12-07 14:45:56 (204 views)
