I recently bought skunk2 springs on my 17 si and I installed them perfectly fine, but now I’m getting a clunking noise on my front driver side when I go over bumps. It sounds like something is loose, but after checking it, everything was fine and in place... anyone having the same problem?

Check your torque on the strut mounts or maybe front endlinks? I've had mounts loosen after a few miles of settling before and that made a solid "clunk" sound. I've also had end links make noise if they were too tight.

Hi did you ever find out what the clunk was all about?

Weird. My skunk2 springs make no noise. Wonder if it was caused by the install.

Keep me updated on what you do
? I don't have any issues. I get a slight amount of creeking sound when I get in the car but I am not sure if thats the springs or the seat because I am fat. lol

i would make sure your top hat center bolt has been torqued properly. if not, the strut shaft can bounce up and down on bumps. check it while it is installed on the car as the weight of the car will keep the shaft from spinning.

i installed the skunk2 springs myself a couple weeks ago and zero noises.
(i did not trim bumpstops)
