Just got the skyjacker 2.5 lift in and in the back there is a clicking noise in the rear. I had to have a shop install the lift and they said it just needs to settle some but I'm not sure if that sounds right. It has the nitrous shocks in the back. The lift looks good otherwise, I posted it on cardomain if anybody wants to look. Anybody know what the clicking noise may be?

Yeah, give us some more info on when you are hearing the noise...under what conditions.

Those sure are some nice wheels and tires. I just sold a set like that a week ago. :wink:

It was all the time. I contacted skyjacker and they said that the bolts might be just slightly too small in diameter and they gave me a few options, they could send me out a bushing or buy shrinkwrap just big enough to fit around the bolt (unthreaded area) and shrink it to the bolt. I chose the latter of the two and it fixed it. They didnt say it but it seems they may have had this problem before. We're only talking a millimeter or so, kinda wierd.

Thanks on the wheels I just picked those up about a week ago. 8)
