Default jus got tein ss-p

i install it myself about a week ago from now.... i drop it all the way....... i jus notice when i shift up the gears i hear a knocking noise when releasing the clucth its really really really soft tho .......got to roll up the window and turn off the radio.....cant hear it when downshifting

i went to the dealership and check it out and they told me that it was due to my suspension that is was to low. that is was the drive shaft is at a angle cause it to knock.....

jus wonderin if anyone hear of this problem or something like that...did research didn't find anything

You should have not dropped the car that low in the first place.

Bring it up to solve the problem.

If the problem is the driveshaft is at too much of an extreme angle the only solution it to raise the car. At least put it up to the point where your drive shafts are parallel to the ground.

The obvious solution of simply raising the car a little bit eluded you? On the other hand: Anyone know where I can get an SS-P cheap?

h8er, I know where to get'em at a great price, (pm JSC_speed) I was poking at Ex, seeing as how he removed his SS-Ps to fix a problem that could have been solved by raising his ride an inch or so.
