most likely it wasnt seated properly in the grooves. Either that or you didnt cut the bumpstop when you installed them

The rattling is gonna be b/c it was seated properly against the bottom plate of the strut/shock. If the bump stop was getting in the way, you would get a bottoming-out clunk.

Check all 4 springs and make sure the edge of the bottom coil is position FIRMLY against the slight indentation of the base plate.



Complaining is futile when you supported the victory.
