Hi all after many weeks of waiting for deliveries to the UK I put in my nf210 springs and tokico gas shocks and struts. As usual after a week I had to tighten up the top nut because it loosened when the springs settled. Everything is tight but I am getting noise off the front suspension. It's a knock sound at lowish speeds and mainly comes from the passenger side, your US side drivers.

Any ideas other than me taking them back apart again?!

open the hood and try to tighten up the bolts ( especially the one on the middle)

try this while the car on the ground than raise the car up so the wheel wont touch anything and try to tighten up the bolts again.

maybe you could try to twist the the springs back and forth on the shock/strut ( by hand)

Did you make sure that the spring is properly seated in the tophat key? That needs to be aligned properly.
