^ mine rattled regardless.

Also the new spring adjusters have a rubber piece for the top, whereas my old ones did not. And now it rattles worse for some dumb reason.

me too

front end clunks when I begin to turn the steering wheel either to the left or the right. This just started yesterday. I haven't done anything to the suspension but the BC's. I haven't checked it out yet, will try to get to that today.

barely came across this thread..i have the megan coils and they do the exact same thing.. i thought it was just an issue where i had to grease them up or something.. so i didnt think much of it enough to write about it on the forum, only occurs on my rear on uneven surfaces like squeaking and clunking etc.

now that ive come across this thread, im a bit worried.

Personally, I just wish this situation was handled better, by bc or performance factory. Many of us have had this problem since day one, and little or nothing has been done.

No s**t. I tried to get in contact with Performance Factory and the phone is out of service. About a week and so I called and I was on the installation of my coilovers and whoever answered told me to call BC for questions on the assembly. What kind of service is that? Didn't Pete @ BC said that both ways are safe with or without the perch? I'm going back to the "wrong" installation which does not make any rattle.

Damn this is why I never recommended them. Suspension is just a scary thing to go wiht a bargain on.

I got some KW's for sale if anyone is interested.

sorry for your problems
