Knocking in the rear of car???? NEED HELP

Post by drums4life0922 » Wed Aug 22, 2007 11:56 pm

Ok i lowered my 2000 neon with 1gn springs, and when i turn left it starts to knock. When i turned right nothing happens, and the sound only comes from the passenger rear drum. So today I took the 1gn springs off and lowered my car with sportlines. My car has camber issues now, and that knocking noise is happening even more so even when im going striaght. Even at low speeds. I'm worried if im going down the hightway at 50 that i something will mess up. Does anybody know what is going on?? I really need help!!!!!!!

did you seat the springs properly? did you move the top hat rubber piece? how can you have camber issues when you dont have camber adjustment? you can only adjust camber if you have camber bolts.

if you lower your car more than 1.5 inches it creates negative camber and the top of the wheel tucks under the fender. Its not much but its some. I figured out what it was, the wheel is hitting the ebrake cable for some reason.
