Just installed some springs the car drives a lot better, however both rear's are making clunking and slight rattling during normal driving, doesn't really have to be a serious bump.

Fronts are silent. I assured that the springs were seated in the divots during install. Only thing I can think of is to tighten the top shock hat bolts on top from in the car. (I'll have to take off the back seat again).

Can anyone give me some insight on these noises coming exclusively from the back.

(Kept original OEM shocks, etc.--no noise before)


Thanks

Mods don't move to ES section please

 

Had this issue as well. My rears were just a little loose. Rip up the carpet and tighten everything down again.

 

Hey, have it opened up now. Was able to tighten the (3) bolts on all wheels a little bit. The shock hat bolts were very tight and unmovable by hand up front. The rears however seem to move rather easily and there is little thread exposed through the nuts. If I recall correctly when the assembly was removed from the car such bolts got to a certain point and the actual shock would begin spinning with the nut. Any way to prevent the shock from spinning with the top hat nut? I feel like this is happening when I am doing it still with them on the car.

Thanks

EDIT: There is a lot less road noise now after tightening the three bolts. I left the top hat nuts alone and added some additional insulation. Now there is only a clunk over large bumps, which I don't mind. Sounds like the top hat nuts are pretty touchy--make noise if too tight or not enough. Man people don't give these springs enough credit, my car drives completely different now and I couldn't be happier.
