ok so just install a set of skunk2 pro c coilovers on a fit a, we are getting this popping sound coming for the passenger front side. i ve contacted skunk2 they said to put some grease on the top and bottom of spring so we did and the sound is still there. i can look up there while car in pn the ground and see the spring popping on the upper cup i believe... any suggestions???

 

tie rod issue. i have it too

 

no tie rod is fine.. i see the spring makeing the noise at least it seems that way.

 

When i put my progress springs on i had a clunk/pop from the passenger front to. . . Just twisted the spring and it went away.

 

damn that sucks.

take it out and reinstall it or take off your tire and jack it up

 

Also check the strut bearings at the top of the shock..

 

ooh i had the same problem

kenchan suggested adding more preload to the spring and tightening the nut at the top of the strut holding the spring hat down. NO MORE NOISE

 

^^Try this!!!

I had this sound when I installed springs on my xB. The top strut nut wasn't tightened all the way. Re-installed with more spring load and walla no more sound =)

 

done both today and the same????

 

are you sure the bearing the strut top is there? not sure how the Skunks install but make sure the bearing is there. If its there and seated right replace the strut mount/bearing. When the bearing binds up the spring pops when you turn back and forth.

 

yep...bearing is there..
