I recently had Racing Beat springs installed on my 2005 Protege ES. The springs lowered the car about 1.5 inches all around but a rattling or clunking noise seems to be coming from my left front suspension. I can't figure out what the problem is and I'm a little worried that something isn't right. I was wondering if anyone had a similar problem with Racing Beat springs and if they had a solution for it. Any help would be much appreciated.

I have a similar noise. But I think I know what my problem is. I poped an endlink out of socket. I just poped it back on. Thats the only one that makes any noise so I'm 99% sure thats the problem (for me). You might also check to make sure you orianted the rubber spacer that sits on the spring in the right place. Or that when the car was set back on the ground the spring went in to place. Hope it helped some how.

I am thinking along the lines of what hughes said--getting the spring seated and aligned correctly is a little bit of a bitch--you may want to double-check your work. Sounds like you had someone do the work for you from your post?
I'd have them look at it.

thanks for the help. I'll have it checked over and see if it fixes the problem.
