Camber tops noise Mon, 27 June 2005 11:37 Go to next message
i just installed camber tops, and now when i turn i can hear the spring move ? i have coilovers, and when i go over bumps it makes a little clunk noise, and with normal tops before it never did that, what could be the noise coming from ?

If the strut top bolts arn't tight enough it well cause the coilover to unload when you go over bumps.
Cause you used standard strut tops on your coilover set-up the top hat is designed to slip over the strut sleeve you need to get new tophats and get them drilled so they sit on the part that the bottom section of the standard strut top locks into or you could get a spacer engineered that sits ontop of this same part and use your exsisting tophats. You will have to make sure the spacer is the correct height so that you can do the bolt on top up tight and there is no play when you pull up or push down on the cambertop. You may need a spacer also with new tophats, you may be able to fix your problem using washers.

Do the camber tops run spherical bearings by any chance? And do the spring hats mate properly into it?

What camber tops?

I had to do some modifications to my spring hats and make spacers to get my Koni inserts, T3 tops and Noltec hats to work properly.
