If its not on upside down it might just need twisting around. | |

hehe ... When I fitted my rear gmax springs, it said 'use the writing to determine which way up they went' - my dad straight away said 'nope, they fit the other way - it must of been printed upside down' - :rolleyes: | |

you don't need spring compressors on the back just jack the car up and you should be able to twist the spring back into place | |

think we actually used the standard bumpstops cant actually remember, but ive had the kit on for 4/5 weeks, and ive only now heard creaking noises, so looked under compared sides and the left hand side seems to sit in better than the right!! | |

G-MAX - 60mm only started hearing the noise in the last week, bit of a creaking noise more than knocking | |

Probably on upside down. One end is bigger than the other on some springs, and so every time u go over a bump, the spring is sliding around on the base and knocking. | |

is that just the quality of the pic, or is all the paint rubbed away on the coils? | |
