no i have no rattle at all!!you might want to check your strut. the instructions are aval on the UAS web site. also check the bolts that hold the plates on the bag if you didnt use any locktite they may have worked a little loose. i cant remember what the # was on the locktite i used but its easy to break loose if i need to. i am also on the stock strut and not on a coilover so that might be all the differance!!! good luck!!!! also do you have any pics of your strut with the problems? maybe i could help more with a pic!!!

I found it, it was my fault. I changed the ball joint at the same time and swaped the two bolts that hold the ball joint on with the two bolts that hold the brake caliper on. The bolts did not hold the brake caliper bracket tight and it was making the noise. Swaped them around and everything was good.
