m1cah 0 Posted April 13, 2005 Recently fitted lowering springs, since this I hear twisting rubber sound when turning on the front end. Thought this might have just taken time for everything to settle down but is still happening after a week. do the rubber mountings need to be trimmed? if yes by how much Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coullstar 0 Posted April 13, 2005 Probably just the front top mounts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rpmayne 0 Posted April 13, 2005 The bump stops should be cut back, otherwise the car might be sitting on them all the time with the new lower ride height. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevemac 0 Posted April 13, 2005 Are your front tyres rubbing on the coil springs or inner wheelarches ? Did you have the front camber re-set once you'd changed the springs ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
m1cah 0 Posted April 18, 2005 Did you have the front camber re-set once you'd changed the springs ? Sorry for being a div but how do I reset the chamber? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted April 18, 2005 Camber, not chamber... it's how the front wheels sit in relation to the vertical. It needs re-setting at a garage with the proper measuring equipment, similar to setting up the tracking on your car... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
