Alright guys after all of my suspension work, kyb agx/h&r, and new calipers/rotors/pads etc, in a about a couple weeks i am getting a weird knock/thump when i put on the brakes(only once) and also when i take off from the stop after i put the brakes on...
I have retorqued all the bolts if they needed it and it still occurs, I can't figure out where its coming from! not sure if its just coincidence or not?
any ideas? its like something is popping/moving one direction when i apply the brakes, and then moving back to its original position after accelerating.. first thought was calipers, then shock install.. does'nt seem to be either!
Brake pads could be moving slightly in the calipher. Or the did you check the piston part of the calipher to the calipher bracket connection. The threaded sleeves on the bracket have flats on them to align correctly to the piston assembly.
check the control arm (i think thats it). This happened to me, and the bushings on
next to where it says "FR." is what im talking about, all my bushings were shot, and when i stopped, the threads of that arm would move through the hole, and then when i would accelerate, it'd slide back again.
