Stasis Suspension - Noises from the Rear

Post by ravashanks » Thu Jun 19, 2014 2:04 pm

Have installed Stasis SL suspension for a while now (4-5 mths). Suspension ran perfectly for the first couple of months, but now i'm getting knocking noises from the rear, particularly the rear right (driver's side; RHD).

Consistently getting knocking when going over speed bumps at anything more than half-clutch speed. Funny thing is i also get the same knocking noise when rounding corners at an incline and when the chassis begins to flex.

Anyone can shed some light as to what this might be? Is it even the suspension or is it something else?
cheers.

Anti roll bar bushes? Try getting under the car and checking for play. Might even be the exhaust catching on something.

Is the old DRC pipework secure?

I would check your sway bar end links. I've seen quite a few of those bust.
