im lowered and it didnt make the noise when i put the springs on. its been a little bit and out of the blue i start hearing this noise when i turn the wheel..would it be the endlinks?

 

dry steering? or while driving. if its while driving what speeds and how aggressive of a turn?

 

CAB maybe

 

like if im backig up and i turn my wheel lol

do u need a press to get those out? or can i just like hammer them out

 

hammer to get them out and press to get them in.

and that could be an axle, cab's wouldn't really do that.

 

Wat does it sound like?

 

idk its hard to explain, it cant be the axle, its kind of if you say "errrrrrrrr" lol does that help?

 

ya i have a similar weird noise but only in aggressive right hand turns, just replaced my cabs as they were pretty bad but that didn't do much to help that, i don't think its axle binding but could be. but if it was it would have been evident when i first lowered my car.

with noises its really hard to diagnose over the internet. if you could get a video of it making the noise then we could certainly help more

 

dont you get axle binding when you lower it a lot? my megan racing springs didnt really lower the car to have axle binding i think? correct me if im wrong plz

 

any lowering can cause axle binding. but yes the more aggressive the lowering is, the more likely axle binding will happen. i had my car lowered for almost 2 years before this noise started. at first i thought it was a seperating tire, then end links, then cabs, checked my hubs (they are all tight) and no rubbing marks. only thing left is my imagination or axle binding. as i can't think of anything else.

sorry to thread jack.

 

damn well i hope its not axle binding, is that expensive to replace?

 

depends on where you get the axles from. if your lowered i recommend grabbing the steering rack spacers to bring everything back into proper alignment. thats about all you can do for preventative mods for it.

 

Eh not sure lol.just throwing this out there,are your tires rubbing when you turn?im on 2_5s an megan racing springs and when I turn like backing out,it catches my inner fender and side skirt an makes a similar sound that your talkin bout

 

235s I mean

 

i was looking at those spacers but idk which ones to get b/c theres like 3 different sizes, idk which one would be the best with the megan racing springs...?

 

Incorrect.

Rotated trans mounts as well.

 

good one. prolly right.

ps rack spacers wont work without rotated mounts. Thin rack spacers that clear stock mounts dont cure bump steer on a lowered car particularly one slammed hard on megans with fender rub...

 

really, i thought the whole point of the rack spacers was to merely bring the rack back up to proper geometery, what effect does the trans mount have on the suspension unless it raises the rack as well?

ya i didn't know about the trans mount, but then again im just on SSC springs.

 

On my H&R's I had mad axle bind from 0-20mph, once the rotated mounts were installed. BOOM, it was gone.

That's not the only reason I got the mounts, but it was definitely a plus.

 

where do i get these mounts and are they hard to install?

 

i have a set of the stage two powell mounts for sale pm me for details
