Title: Tracking question
Post by: tigers_gonads on 08 April 2022, 19:43:14

Last week myself and Mini me replaced the front springs, shocks and strut tops on his civic.
All went according to plan.  Today, he had a front tyre replaced and asked them to track the front up.   After beginning the setup, they decreed that because one of the new tops has a squeak, they cannot track it.
Is this true or 'dangle berries' ??
The cars done 250 mile since the struts was fitted.

What top mounts were used and is the spring seated correctly?

First sentence has probably answered your question...

Sadly I think you maybe right.
I’ll have a gander later to make sure the mount or spring hasn’t slipped but ill be suprised if they have slipped when he bolted it back together.
I’ll let you know 🤔😁
