I just thought another lock would be nice peace of mind. If a coilover managed to come loose after the lock ring coming undone and a rubber clamp underneath the lock ring coming loose that would be pretty amazing. |

Went through everything this morning. Everything was torqued to spec and still tight from before. Added a little wd40 to the pillow ball because it seemed almost stuck. Took a little preload of of the fronts because they were just a little shorter than 150mm. And now there's no noise for the most part. That's happened before and then it comes back after a couple days, but fingers crossed!

To be honest I haven't driven it a lot, but I can report that it's still clunking over bumps at slow speeds. Not nearly as much though. Driving normally it hasn't made much noise at all. I'm at the point where I think I need to accept that it will make some noise from time to time. I think it's at a tolerable enough level to live with
EDIT: drive it around today. Clunk still there for sure... Everything is still tight, nothing has shifted. I give up Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G928A using Tapatalk Last edited by mpross; 04-03-2016 at 04:26 PM. |

Usually really cheap spherical bearings can be swapped out with better quality ones. If you pull the mounts and know what to measure you can get NHBB bearings put in.

Also the rears seem to be making a majority of the noise now (although the fronts still do some). I don't think the rears use spherical bearings don't they? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G928A using Tapatalk |

From the pics in this thread it looks like the rears have a spherical on the top but I'm not sure. I'm fairly certain BC uses very cheap bearings. Doesn't mean that's your clunking problem, just saw you felt the need to spray wd40.
