i just got my dropzones' put on last saturday! Been driving all week and its really different from stock.
the bumpin drove is dring me crazy with all the knonking and clanks here and there and the occassional disc skip from a pot hole. theres construction around my area and its full of potholes. POTHOLES POTHOLES POTHOLES! I hate it!!!! But when i look at the 2 inch drop in the front, and 2.5 in the rear. It makes me smile and forget about the crappy drive i just had. Then i get the feeling of killing some ppl when i see the bent lips i have on rims!  errrrr! Any ideas how to get rid of the knocking in ther rear ? -------------------- Chris Malaqui

Is this more of a clanking than a knocking? Sounds like the prob I'm having with my eibachs.

Also, since you have coilovers, make sure you greased the top perch well enuff. If you don't know, check out the how to section on this site

Especially if you want to lower your car quite a bit....go with the Konis, they'll handle the drop much much better.
