Ok, Greg and I swaped his Coils and AAL on Sunday. I noticed that when i hit a speed bump straight on, the front sus. goes up fine but when it drops, it makes a loud bang?? i'm guessing that is the shock reaching it's max length maybe? hoping that is normal.
For the AAL, I notice that if i stand behind the truck with the rear hatch open, and push down on the bumper and then let it up, i can hear/feel a double "bump bump" and it sounds as if it's coming from the walls of the truck. like maybe I messed something up with over/under tightning the shackle bolts?
Remember we swaped compleate leave springs and shock/coils. so the whole leaf was off, front and rear bolts. and U bolts of course.
I just want to make sure that this is either normal or if I should fix something? Thanks.
I took the rear shocks completely off and still get the same noise. its almost like something is notched somewhere on the shackle, so when it moves it "pops" out and then back in.. b/c you get that "bump bump" sound at the exact same spot. I also disconnected the sway bar to eliminate that too.
other then that the lift is sweet the feeling of the beefy coils is awesome, and my nose doesn't dive when i break anymore!
I do not seem to have the vibration that others have mentioned either.
