rear making noise after dropping
I just got done dropping my CL a couple of hours ago.
while out on a test drive, i could hear a noise from back. somethign like 2 metal parts move against each other (not rattling). I showed it to my friend/mechanic and he said that the strut mounts broke.
I didnt get a chance to look into it yet because its already dark, but will tomorrow or day after.
anyone here has had the same problem before?
haven't taken any photos yet.

I have the same issue... i put on eibach's and when i go over a bump "on an angle" i hear the niose too. I took the back seat out and sat back their while i got my friend to drive. I thought "maby didn't tighten the it up all the way" but that wasen't it. I think its the spring. I did forget to put on the rubber spacer that came with the kit. Once i had the backs already installed I noticed the spacrs weren't for the fronts. I can go fast around turns but its only when i'm on an incline do i hear that sound.

the springs i bought were a knockoff version of tein s tech. even the box they came in looks just like tein box, but w/o the logo on there.
It may be the sway bar endlinks, but the sound is coming from the top.
I'll look into it maybe tonight or tomorrow.
I'll get back w/ the results.

we have 2 winners!
they were loose. had nothing to do w/ the springs or shocks.
just used an alan key and a wrench to tighten them up and now it rides better than ever!
even on 19s (feels better than stock)
