Ticking sound after installation

I was told to wait 200 miles before getting alignment from the shop that installed Bilstein.

 

I hope not but that’s what it kinda sounds. A playing card hitting the spokes on a bike wheel.

 

no vibration definitely a ticking sound. Like something is barely hitting something.

 

no sway bar spacer at least I didn’t pay for the spacer. I didn’t check.

 

Thanks for all your feedback. I’m going to the tire shop tomorrow and the suspension shop on Mon if necessary. I will keep you all posted.

 

No I wasn’t lifted before installing the Bilstein. Do the CV axle need to be removed to install the Bilstein?

 

I understand where you heard it but don’t agree. After 10 or 20 miles and a couple days sitting it’s time for an alignment. Yes it settles some but 200 miles is excessive.

hope you find a solution for the noise!

 

Rhythmic

 

No

 

I was searching for this and I believe my brand new totally stock Tacoma has a ticking from the front passenger. I should have known it's most likely the caliper dust covers, but yes, it's almost exactly like someone put a baseball card in the spokes, just like the good ole days.
