It's been a couple/few weeks since I got my car dropped on H&R Sport Springs...

I've noticed over the last couple of days that the front of my car squeeks when I go over speed bumps... Is this normal? There doesn't seem to be any noise coming from the front on normal driving...just over the bumps...(and coming on and off driveways)...

Should I bring it back to the place that installed the springs? Or is this normal and I should just chill out? I really don't want to take the drive unless there is really something they can do about it...

Thanks for the opinions...

Mike

 

you should get your shocks checked out, they might be blown.

 

Yikes...I have a hard time believing that, since I have only 7500 miles on them...

I hope that's not the case...

I have set up an appointment for next Tuesday for them to take a look though...

 

All aftermarket suspensions squeek. Even highly priced Tein. Thats just the way it is

 

If that is true, then I am certainly willing to live with it...and avoid the trip to my installer...

I will wait for more opinions and replies to this thread before cancelling my appointment on Tuesday though....

Is this the general concensus? That this is normal?

 

it's the lower ball joints

 

And are you saying/confirming that I just need to live with it? Nothing can be done?

 

I had the same squeak on my 03 when I got my H&Rs put on. All you have to do is lube up the ball joints and the squeaks will disappear. Thats what worked for me. Your schoks should be fine....

 

no harm done

it's either gonna broken or need some lube

 

everybody I know with aftermarket suspension set ups have squeeks. it's just the nature of racing parts aposed to stock parts

 

Agree. I know someone that had exactly that situation: lower ball joints squeek.
