    Just installed new OME nitro setup with with 883 springs, and now every time the car makes abrupt movement, just braking at low speeds, or turning at low speeds, I hear a creaking noise from under neath my left foot. I assume this has something to do with the new setup.

    Could this be the new bushings or the new springs? Is it normal?

    No, that's not really normal. New bushings shouldn't creek. What kind of bushings?

    Double check you have proper torque on all your bolts, and that you followed installation procedures. Make sure you installed the springs on the shocks properly, etc...

    Did you get it aligned yet?
