Default Just installed new springs and shocks...

Installed KYB AGX shocks, and Strano Springs on my 02 SS. I now have a nasty clunking noise comeing from somewhere at the front of my car when I go over bumps. Any ideas? Maybe I didnt compress the springs enough?

Can't tell any more specifically where you think it's coming from? Maybe it's a loose bolt. Maybe you installed the spring in the wrong position (they should fit in one way). Maybe you need a new mount.

I cant really tell where its coming from. I know its up from b/c I did the rear and drove it before I did the front.

The car only has 16,000 miles on it.....

If the nuts on the top of the front shocks are not fully tightened the dust covers have a few centimeters of movement. Causes clunking I'm having the same problem and this is what I was told may be the problem.
