Vtr rear end knocking noise

[puddy]

I have got a really bad knocking noise when under 20 mph and it stops when i brake. I have recently put vts wheels on and then painted my calipers and its only been doing it since i done my calipers. Any one know what it could be?? Any advice/help would be great!

Sounds like a loose pad to me, did you remove calipers?

[puddy]

Nope just the wheels. Taped the rest up

[Pricklep]

exhaust knocking off the recess or beam?

[puddy]

[saxoboi85]

Check the length of the wheel nuts as they can be catching on the dust cover on the rear of the hub had this problem too and wrecked my head for a week and that was it

[puddy]

I will have a look tomorrow. Will it sort it self out or will i have to get shorter wheel bolts mate?

[puddy]

Vtr washer ones and there staying tight and doing the job

[saxoboi85]

If ya using the vtr ones it shouldn't be making that nose check the wheel bearing as one of the balls in could of fucked up over then that strip it all down and check it all

Oh damm haha thats a lot of money and a right pain in the arse!

Check the handbrake cable bracket fella, i left the bolt off mine by accident when lowering the rear end and it did the simular knocking noise, then i remembered, put the bolt back on and voila no more knock, could be the same thing, worth a check!
