Is that the part that the top mount pivits on??? or where the top of the spring touchs the rubber it pushs up against??
i was just going to post up about this. my d2s hav been bonging a bit lately. i was doing an oil nd filter b4 nd looked at my shochers nd thought f**k my locking rings had undone themselves is this bad? and another thing, when u bolt the hub to the bottom of the shocker the top hole isnt round it lets u move the hub in nd out(camber adjudtment) but if u want no camber how do you get both the wheels at the same angle?
push it in as far as u can and adjust the camber viar the camber adjustable top mounts.
my buddy clubs used to do the same thing and i then realised it was because the pillow balls MUST be greased, other wise the wont work and your shock will twist whisch is very bad as this can damage the seal on the shaft and make the shock leak.
so grease your pillow ball top mounts the actual ball itself that the meyal mount attaches to and all should be hunky dory after that.
how do you grease the ball? do you just undo the nut ontop then jack the car up to drop it down?
im not entirley sure how the top mounts come apart on the d2's, but you could just try spraying wd-40 in there lots of it, it seemed to work for me.
thats part of my regular servicing. i lube them with wd40 every week or so when im using the car!
do you really?
i dont want to sound like im taking the piss mate but that is slightly anal lol
ok have you tried greasing the pillow balls at all?
that bong noise should definately not be there.
