2008 - 2003 = 5 years. haha.

idk, I got the car in jan of 07 and I havn't changed them so at least over a year if not since the car was new. I was going to have them checked out when I get my brakes done next week.

nby pull?

 

[red95_240sx]

wat u mean when u say they pull

 

[xDJ DUBx]

oh, I meant like if you turn the steering wheel a lot one way or another, it wants to pull that way a little while you're driving.

Ex. I pull up to a stop sign and turn right onto the road. After I turn and I'm going down the road, if I left go of the steering wheel the car will start to noticably go towards the right and continue until I'm off the road.

 

[njaremka]

thats going to be normal for any lowered protege because you have seriously compromised the suspension geometry. no way around it.

 

[xDJ DUBx]

I know, it sucks.

What about the noise of them turning though when I turn the wheel, can I mute that or lower the sound some how?

DJ Duwb, do u have any endlink problems that low?

 

[xDJ DUBx]

I'm short with knowledge in the suspension area of my car so if I did have endlink problems, how would I know?

 

[red95_240sx]

LOL. ull hear "cluddle cluddle cluddle" u can look and see. grab em and shake em, and check how close the sweay bar is to the tie rods.

 

[xDJ DUBx]

So if I don't hear any noise while driving I don't have problems, or when I turn?

I do hear noise when I turn the steering wheel.

 

[red95_240sx]

u cud acceptably hear noises over bumps, but even then somethin cud be wrong or oose. what kinda noise is it u hear?

 

[xDJ DUBx]

Its kind of a deepish sounding clicking noise when I turn the wheel, like the springs a slightly slipping against the top of the strut. There isn't a piece of rubber in between the spring and the strut plate like with the stock ones, there is the top of the spring with a metal cup thing that sits on top of it then the strut plate so I figured it was those two thing rubbing as I turned the wheel.

 

[red95_240sx]

r those two surfaces scratched?

 

[xDJ DUBx]

I don't have a floor jack so I haven't been able to look but I'm going to my friend's sat. to put my rear lip on so I'll check then.

 

[red95_240sx]

also when u do that, jack the front of the car up, let the springs fall down, turn the ignition to on, and turn em and see what happens. u cud do this with two scissor jacks

 

[xDJ DUBx]

Turn the ignition on so the wheels don't lock up?

If nothing happens when I turn the wheels except for the wheels turning, thats good right?

My g-ma don't have one in her car and I only have one, I'd be scared to use that to lift the front anyways, I BEARLY can fit a floor jack underneath it and I can't even get to the nipple bump down there. haha.
