Endlink Clearance Issue After Ohlins Coil Install

simpleM3 · 07-23-2019, 05:48 PM

There isn't enough clearance between the endlink and the front driver side strut carrier since Ohlins were recently installed. There's suspension noise coming from that side of the front end. Upon inspection, I noticed the tight space and believe that its causing the noise when driving. Anyone experience this? Should I have replaced the endlinks to adjustable ones? Could the endlinks be worn?

There should be spacers on the end links.

Good call. I need to double check on whether they were actually installed. I know I accounted for them upon receiving them
