    Hi everyone my brother and I put on OME 885 and 5100's on the front. Super easy. After the alignment i have noticed a metal clinking noise from the drivers side after taking a look the drivers side is exactly the same as the passenger with one exception. (look at pictures )

    Can anyone tell me why this is like this? Im taking it into the dealer tomorrow but thought I would ask. Maybe its a quick fix? First pic is the drivers side the top nut is all the way down on the threads

    Must have forgotten to put in the lower washer, or you put the bushing in and then the washer. Sorry the strut has to be disassembled to reinstall it either way

    Thanks for the reply. I was a the lower washer. Odd thing is I just reused all the old hardware from the old shocks. The drivers side didn't have one. Makes me feel good
