Shortened front drop links

Post by Robmtb »

Hi

I have lowed my maxi about 3 months ago and find i hear a knocking noise, especially under full lock.

I have noticed the current standard front drop links are very close to the bottom wish bone.

Anyone had the same? go for fixed length drop links or adjustable?

Thanks

This is the height of my maxi, been like this for four years now, I changed my front drop links when I fitted coilovers with just febi ones and I've never had any knocking, did you change these and top mounts? Image
