Okay I have FK Coilovers in my car and since the day that they were installed the rear was very noisy while driving, this obviously made me quite angry so today finally I put my Stock rear suspension back in and absolutley no noise....

1)shocks or springs are defective???
2)possible worn out rubber mount on carrier and with stiffer suspension it is very noticeable.
3)My car does not want to be lowered
4)both 1 and 2

Thanks

Is this a constant noise while you move or lots of creaks and squeaks as you go over bumps?

Clunking when you go over bumps with the coilovers only

K-daddy

but I guess you knew that. Here are some shots in the dark.

Did your coilovers have the springs pre-loaded? If the springs were loose without the weight of the car, maybe that caused clunking as you went over bumps.

Perhaps the shocks from the coilovers were not fully filled with oil and have no damping near the top of the travel. That would cause them to top out very easily as you unload over bumps. If you have one without the spring, you could pull the shaft out and see if it gets really easy near the end of the travel. Or, if they are pressurized, push one in and let it out, see if it speeds up near the end of travel.

Best of luck! It's a shame to not be able to use your toys.

Do you have an aftermarket swaybar?
