SPL Front Tension Arm Installed

DeathBear · 07-23-2021, 12:30 AM

Hi All,

I just had the SPL front tension arms installed. I am having some clunks at low speed and going over bumps. Is this normal with SPL tension arms with solid bushings?

Thanks!

I haven't had any clunking when going to monoballs in the tension strut area. I'd check for sway bar interference and proper torque at the connection points.

Thanks so much. You were spot on regarding proper torque at connection points. Fixed!!
