Need ADVICE for rattling passanger front coilover!
i installed hks coilovers (hypermax rs) over 3 months ago, and it first stared with the rear rattling but i took it off n but it back on, tightened all the bolts n its stopped the racket, now its my front right coilover... i tightened the top mount nuts and it went away for awhile. just the other day i went down my street (pot hole nation!) and now its louder than ever, any ideas as how i can approach this?

i know i think im gonna have to take both coilovers off and inspect them this weekend... then tighten them again...
i used hand tools to install them will that have anything to do with the rattle??? oh and i also got it a four wheel alignment...

okay, so i decided to take the coil over off, and realized the the bolts that hold the upper control arm were extrememly loose(definately not tightened to the correct torque specs). So i decided to tae both coilovers off and switch the fronts (left to right, right to left) when i put them back on i just made sure al bolts and pins were tightened to the correct specs....and no more annoying cluncking....
