suspension help.....

I have a 2003 mazda protege 5 and I installed Tein S.Tech Lowering Springs and it makes a loud clunck sound under my feet when I take a left turn or go over a bump....should I change it back to stock? info or help will be greatly appreciated......

Could be many, many things. It sounds like to me that you have a worn mount, or something was not put back together correctly. Something could be loose, too. I am sure you have checked this out, however.

make sure the spring is seated right in the boot too.

sounds like you need to check your suspension once more, throughly this time though. i installed mine about a month a ago, and boy oh boy, what have i been missing.

awesome.. totally awesome.

as the prev post, i would double check to see if the spring is set at the boot properly, can you tell which side the noise is coming from. that might eliminate you taking all four struts out..
