addison Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 just installed rallitek springs. the install went great and i got everything torqued to spec. Under compression, my front passanger spring/strut knocks and rattles. Everything looks ok however. Is this something that could settle out in a few days? Is it ok to drive on?

StoplightAssassin Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 make sure the nut that secures the top hat to the strut is completely down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m sprank Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 ^ +!. Should be torqued to no more than 40lbs, but needs to be tight to the top hat. If not damage could occur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iON Performance Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 addison - did you make sure to transfer all of the OEM spring silencers onto the new springs? Is there still a spring pearch seat at the bottom of the pearches in the front of the struts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m sprank Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 actually you should torque it more than 40lbs 41lbs is spec I stand corrected. I was going off my aftermarket struts which recommend 40lbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
