After I installed the coilovers, I hear a strange sound coming from the right back of my car. I check all bolts, nuts and everything is fully tighten. Loop talked about the preload thing while back that would eliminate the noise. I'm not too sure how to preload and what "preload" really means in this case. Any help would be appreciated. Btw, thanks for your suggestion Joe, but I decided to sell mine anyway.
I don't get to spend much time on here, but I try to respond as quickly as possible. You can always contact BC Racing about preloading or any questions you may have. Customer service is great. I will respond later tonight about preloading when I am free.

LOL cuz I don't have mine yet , so I didn't think more than 2 sec about the problem

but yeah longer bolts should work. and I don't need the extra dose of sarcasm lol

What's up with people these days? You don't count people by anything but their personality. I don't give a sh*t if you have a million bucks-- it all comes down to how you act. And saying crap like this doesn't make you look all that hot.

When are you moving back here anyway? I feel that you posted that it would be a couple months almost a year ago.

I wouldnt mind seeing some of your crazy monitor obsession and A/V madness in person some time.
