so i installed my springs today and they were installed correctly and they make like a lil thump noise nothing very loud but you can notice it has this happened to anyone? do the springs just need to be broken in? please help me out

 

I just installed Progress Rear Sway Bar with stock springs and I too am hearing thump noise. I wonder if it's just because the springs have to settle. However, it's been a week now and I still hear it from time to time.

 

pokem- in your case the rear bar might be rubbing the spring. turn your
spring 1/4 cw or ccw and put them back together again.

wait4- some springs needs grease in the mounts to quiet them down.
try some lithium grease spray and put a dab on the top and bottom
of the spring.

it shouldn't make any noise though if they were designed/manufactured
correctly.

 

yea i put grease on them i found out today it wasnt my springs that were squeaking it was my sway bar! it was a lil loose so i tightened it up and it was good as new. t1r springs are a lil bouncy but they lower nice and are kinda stiff

 

the front or progress rear?

 

mine made noise for about a week then they stopped making noise. I think it is just them settling in I guess.

 

yea i put my skunk 2 springs on about a month and a half ago now and all of them are good ad make no noise except my pssanger rear... its like a creaking noise of the spring compressing over bumps and what not... anyone with skunk2's help me?

 

weird b/c i just installed my tein s-techs and the same thing happens its just the rear passenger one makin a creaking noise any one has any ideas?

 

this sucks.

matched springs and dampers ftw.

 

same thing happens to me with my Eibach's. It happened before i lowered it and still happens after i lowered it.

 

you guys gsould try rotating the spring a quarter turn counter clockwise.mine was doing this and after i did this no more creaking
