AFe power lowering springs clunking after install
So last night me and a couple of my friends installed the afe lowering springs 1.25 front and 1.5 rear and the stance looks great but when going over bumps i can hear a chlunking noise was wondering if anyone else had an issue like this it seems to be only coming from the passenger rear side

That spring looks super compressed, almost to the point of no travel whatsoever. Are the others like this too???

Yes they do look very compressed but that is what they looked like before they were on the top portion of the spring is by design more compressed than the bottom portion do you think spring insulators would help
