Bumping sound from rear suspension
Under hard acceleration, I get a singular bump sound from the rear. Sometimes I get this bump noise when I start only moderately from a stop sign. The mufflers bump up against the CS rear cutouts when I make a sharp turn left or right. But this noise sounds different, like a suspension noise when the weight shifts to the rear. I recently re-tightened up the rear bolts and added red loctite.
Current suspension modifications:
Koni Sports (Yellows)
FRPP K-Springs (Eibach Pros)
Steeda LCA and UCA
Steeda Panhard Bar and Brace.
I never checked the pinion angle of the driveshaft.
What noise does this make when out of spec?
I adjusted the UCA .25" shorter to compensate for the 1.5" spring drop.
My LCA bushings look more compressed than most pictures.
I torqued the bolts to 129 ftlbs, the car was under load, but not exactly level.
Can a LCA bushing make this noise?
Will any of this help? Soon to install modifications to be ESP legal:
Remove Steeda LCA
Install FRPP Rear Sway bar
Install Strano Front Sway bar
Any help would be appreciated.
