kingbobdole Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 So I accidentally bought some 2wd rear struts off da ebay for my Rx and it sat too high... so I decided that the wagon could always use more lift so I swapped the strut on the wagon with the 4wd springs. It was a tight fit, but I got them on sans a single washer on top of the upper spring perch. Now the wagon makes all kinds of noise from the rear, like the struts are blown... like a knocking. Is it because there is too much tension on the struts due to the longer 4wd springs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baccaruda Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 My EA81T coupe does a little of that too.. new KYB GR2s in the back too, and none of the bushings seem loose or rotted.. I haven't thoroughly troubleshot it yet.. I also need to put in fresh front sway bar bushings because I KNOW that thing's making some noise... good luck.

kingbobdole Posted July 22, 2007 Author Share Posted July 22, 2007 thanks.... still no idea... put an EJ22 back there today and it still makes the noise(not that I was trying to load it... just needed to move the engine...) I think I'll either cut the springs a touch or get 2wd springs... or new struts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
