Still have not decided as what to do next. Stops are cut, can't go back to stock with cut stops?!
I would do what hotrodharley has done & just 'get used to the noise'! I agree with him, the level look is just too nice to go back to stock. And I have only seen it in pics, I imagine it is more dramatic in person!

If those coils are expieriancing bind then the spring rate is too soft. Anyone know what it is?

At your local Honda Dealer!
That was just an example that they used, it said most Dealers have, but they are using the Honda ones.

could you just slide some heater hose over the lower coils so when they hit eachother it would dampen the clunk noise.
So what is the part number on these and where is the best price at???

We have been waiting for someone to find a real fix but guess that has not happened. Does anyone have this noise with a full lowering? I like the way its sets now but the wife can't take the noise. Don't really want to spend the money but if thats the only fix I guess we will have to save the money and do it. Yhanks for any Help.

I just put some GL levelers on and I love the new stance. I have not heard any clunking even with a heavy loaded car and speed bumps. I did not cut the bumpstops so maybe that why the coils are not contacting, did anyone get the noise without cutting the bumps. I.ve only felt the bottom out effect once or twice since I installed these so I may not cut the bumps at all, any downfalls to not cutting them? Maybe I dont hear the knock because I put on a flowmaster at the same time and now I can't hear anything inside the car

I installed mine 1/2 year ago, and never cut the bumpstops either. I never found any problems so far.

I do have a loud scraping sound coming from the back when ever the weather is cold outside, but that was long before I put the springs in. I think it is the shocks.
