Just fitted coilovers to the car, Everything fine until I drove it and it was all over the road.

So took it to get 4 wheel alignment and that made a world of diffrence.

Now the bad news .... they creak like a bitch when turning from lock to lock.
Have I missed a bearing or something?

If I remember correctly, there was a Silver Disk ontop of the spring, that butted upto another silver disk from the doner setup and then the strut top ontop of that.

Is that right? or should there be a bearing between the 2 silver disks ?
