Anyone start to have a clicking noise once they installed trailing arms? Comes from both sides. Dealer replaced the drive shaft and claim to have put the spacers in the hub but it's still there if not a little worse. I'm brining it back to them but I'm afraid once they see the trailing arms that they will say it's that. They blamed the clicking on my exhaust system when I installed cutouts last summer. I had to bring in the TSB to show them it wasn't the cutouts...

If they're tight there's nothing to click or move around.

They were installed and torqued correctly.

I had that issue after mine were installed, it turned out to be the emergency brake cable rubbing against wheels weights on the inside drum of my wheel. Check to make sure the emergency brake cable is clamped into its retaining clip (both sides).

I had Pfadt trailing arms installed and no noise.
