Suspension Issue?
I have a 2006 SS. About a week or so ago I got around to installing Powell v5's with Koni yellows in the front(adjusted half way inbetween hard and soft, always tried 1/3 from full soft as recommended). Had the car aligned the next day and have been enjoying it pretty much since then. The other day I hit a pot hole I guess you could call it...I live in Connecticut and there are plenty of manholes and what not that aren't exactly avoidable. Anyways, so I drove into one of these and the front end made a HUGE bang. I never had this issue with the old suspension even though the struts were leaking a little bit. The only thing I could think of is maybe its the lack of bump stops? When I put everything back together I noticed that my car never had them to begin with, but it never made a huge bang when I hit a bump in the road either. Its fine over small bumps and things of that nature but when the suspension has to travel a lot it makes a huge bang like I said. Any ideas?
