    I installed Bilstein 6112/5100 combo and icon 3 leaf aal a week ago and now I am getting a random knock in my front end. Doesn't matter if your on the brakes, off the brakes, cruising, turning, etc.... Completely random. Changes cv shaft, wheel bearing, brake caliper, removed sway bar and it's still there. PLEASE HELP!!!

    I don't. Like I said, I can't make it make the noise and you can feel it in the truck when it does it.
