PFADT Lowering Springs Seem to Have Issues??

[Snake Slayer]

20K miles on my pfadt springs and sways no issues to report. Post install i did have an clunk but it turned out to be an endlink issue re-torqued and good to go.

No issues with My PFADT drop springs so far. But there are a bunch of Guys in Utah who "track day" they're cars and have blown axles because dropping your car put stress on the rubber boots of the rear axles.

I've been running Pfadt springs on my Camaro for a year and a half with a lot of heavy usage without any issues. They perform very well and the stance is great.

Now I took the car out of the garage this week since the weather is so nice, and with the windows down what do I hear? Pop and clunking when I backed out of my garage. Get on the street and its the same noise anytime I go over a bump or uneven surface. It may be time for me to invest in coil overs after all. Not sure if something wore out prematurely or a defect. All I know is that it is irritating.

Did you receive the endlink update kit? I would suggest making sure they are tight. Which end of the car is the noise coming from?

Hopefully Pfadt will make a detailed post about what the problem was because I know a lot of people were having similar issues.

Pfadt is a stand up company and they stand behind the products they manufacture. It says a lot that they had their team fly to your location and address your issues.

Honestly i dont know. Lol

I dropped my car off the day before and picked it up after they left so i never got to talk with them. I talked with the guy at loud pedal for a second on the phone but didnt understand what he was saying cuz i could barely hear him and he was busy when i picked the car up.

I sent a pm to Pfadt asking them to explain what the issue was in a thread. I dont want to say something and have that not be correct.

Well, I never had problems with my Pfadt springs when I had them. Gave them to a forum member. I still have the Pfadt sways on for now with Pedders end links. My springs were very early ones though. Sounds like it is a more recent problem.

I'm going to do the FE4/5 sway bars and LCAs soon.



Now Bonnies Vette creeks and pops like crazy when turning the wheels.

Im thinking about getting Eibachs. They come with a million mile waranty plus supply Nascar, F1 you name it with their spring needs.

Hey guys, great news, as RedRocketSS mentioned there was a quick adjustment to get the noise taken care of. See the details here:

I was going to add to the pile that no issues with my Pfadt spings or endlinks. Springs have been on since April '10, and 12K miles. No issues at all!
