okay, today i just installed the two rear Hayame full coilovers and waiting to install the fronts soon...i didn't reall get a chance to adjust it the way i like cause i was kinda rushing...on the passenger side rear, the swaybar endlink that's not connected to the lower arm bolt wouldn't tighten, it just keeps turning and turning when i'm tightening it...should i get a new one or doesn't matter? and when i took it for a test drive, i keep hearing clunking noise every couple of bumps...i'm pretty sure someone here had/has this happened to them before. how to fix it? thanks! :run:

And i ride is really stiff/rough i might mention... haha

how low did you set the rear?

clunking is most likely either a loose top nut (just double check them) or if you slammed it, the springs hitting the perches on bumps

right now there is about a two or two and a half fingure gap, i already double checked the top nuts. and i hear these clunking noises even on roads that aren't smooth...i hate running into problems like these....oi

you have to stick a 5mm allen wrench in the end of the end link bolt while u put a wrench on the nut....here is a picture of the fronts..works the same way..
