carrots 1 Posted April 11, 2011 ive been thinking about the knocking noise i get from my os suspension.i am wondering if the nut on the top of the strut needs to be a bit tighter.its got 2 slits in it and most prob you should have a special tool to tighten it.how tight should it be Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mimjed 0 Posted April 11, 2011 Slotted nuts do indeed want to be tight, you can buy the tool from gsf about £12 for 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

boost monkey 0 Posted April 11, 2011 30lbft and Bentley says they were used on the C, at least in the USA. I'm pretty sure I had some when I pur the Gas VR6s on the Plum. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
