Just wondering if I have A-Arm contact....

I installed a frankie about a month ago. This was the first real wheeling
I have done since I put it in...

When either wheel caught a little air, occasionally I would hear a pretty
load knocking sound. Could this be the Upper A-arms smacking the coils?

Any other ideas? Never heard before the frankenlift....

Was it at "ride height" (sitting on ground) when you tightened the sway bar end links? If so, I'd say you could have a-arm/coil contact. Love the avatar, btw.

loosen the sway bar end-links, drive about 15 feet forward, then re-torque them, take it around the block or two and see if that helps.

I re-torqued both, as well as the mounts for the sway-bar.
