Rich and others, I have a similar situation with my car with the Eibach kit. It makes the same sound you describe and seems to happen in the same situations you mention, though originally it began on the drivers side, but now sounds as though it comes from both sides. I seem to hear it more when I have a 1/2 tank or more of fuel, or if the trunk is loaded, as it was to and from the DCS. I had the suspension inspected twice and everything is installed properly. I asked Stephen from DMC (Texas) to take a ride with me at the DCS so he could hear it first hand. He agreed, it was suspension related and is going to be working with my installer to try and correct the problem. From what has been explained, the shock towers were built with some variance. Some cars will make noise when the OEM is replaced with after market, especially if the after market spring is larger than the OEM. It seems to hit the shock tower when deflected and makes the sound you describe. The only solution is to return to stock, install smaller springs or if visible, pull the shock tower framing where the spring has rubbed against it. - Joshua Schwartz 001292 020098 racuti1@xxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: >Last weekend I rebuilt the front suspension on my DeLorean.
