Hey guys i put on the front set of my Tein HAs and i hear a bit of noise even when i hit the slightest bump.....it sounds like it may be coming from the strut tower but I torqued that down to spec (25ft lbs) They are definately in good condition....I have ridden over like 20 speed bumps in the last hour and they are holding firm but i hear that noise....Is noise pretty common in coilovers? sorry if it is a stupid question...i just dont know what exactly what it is...thanks

you need to tighten the shock nut in the center of the Hat. The shock spins inside the hat (isn't notched like the stockers) so will need to physically hold the shaft and then tighten the nut
