I just installed the GAS monoballs on my car. I purchased the new TRW arms from GAS with the monoballs pre-installed. I also noticed a single clank sound when reversing. Unlike the last couple of posters, I do not have a BBK.
I installed the arms and torqued to 75 ft lbs + 90 degrees with the suspension under load. I'm confused as to why some people here are reporting no noise, but a few of us are experiencing some. What did I do wrong? |

I’ll probably retorque things and inspect my sway bar links to see if they are worn. |

Hmm I noticed a clunking when I jab the brakes at super slow speed, think E46 checking lower control arm bushings technique.
I haven't found where the source of the noise is yet. Maybe it's this?

After having the monoballs for a while, and having multiple people listen to the sound, I think it's just the brake pads shifting. Pretty common on these cars. I think it became more noticeable after the monoballs due to replacing a rubber bushing with a solid one.
I only hear the noise when I hit the brakes for the first time after changing directions and then I never hear it again. So I'm pretty confident that's the brake pads. I think if it was something else with the suspension I'd hear it over bumps and whatnot. |

man thats not what I was hoping to hear. I must have missed the threads on these. I did pick them up brand new in box for $150 from a member. So I guess if they trash out, Im not out a whole lot.

SPL front monoballs aren't sealed. Mine went bad pretty quickly, and had a lot of play by the time I took them off (~6mo or so). For more street driving sealed monoballs or poly seems like the way to go. Food for thought. If you already have them installed I'd just keep an eye out and service them when necessary.
