new springs now got a squeek!!
hey
just got my westy lowered 40mm at triple six, kept standard dampers, and got spax springs. recently i can hear a quiete squeek from the front right, when i'm driving, it seems to be worse when i'm going over undelations rather than over big bumps and under forse when cornering.
any ideas before i take it back?

or he didnt tighten the ARB end plates up tight enough, that makes a squeeking noise.
also, i hvae found the coils on spax 40mm sporings to tough each other, could be that.
check everything listed in this thread and im sure you'll find the problem.

The Anti roll bar plate is a common one after lowering.
