I think i found the fix.. My passenger side came loose a few days ago, and my local shop fixed the problem.. They only worked on the passenger side.. So now the drivers side came loose. So I am going to use the same fixer they did... Medium Strength loctite(blue)

Hope this works because I have the same issue.

i am having problems with mine also i have taken rear apart 7 times and still makes noise, plus it doesnt feel like the shocks work as well as the srt8 stuff car floots more above 140mph
Have you checked the lower bolt at all? I had a rather nasty clunk, so we took and tightened the bolt up quite a bit. We're going to add a washer in the next time my car goes in to have the rear-end worked on...

Also, how tall is your car set, and what's the settings all around? I'm running 12 at each corner,* and it feels a little rougher than stock, but handles much nicer.

*measured as clicks from all the way to the "left."

I will loctite the drivers side hopefully tomorrow eve and give it a shake down on some less than smooth streets here in town.. If it does indeed get loose I will contact BC.. Maybe a locking ring would take car of it too...

A little bit of loctite should keep the rings in place if you're having an issue keeping them locked up.

If anyone is having an issue just let us or BC know, and we'll get it taken care of.

Well, let me join the BC clunk club as well. Passenger rear makes a heck of a racket over every bump. I just installed them a couple of days ago and the rear passenger clunk started from mile one. I guess it's time to jack the car up and retighten everything as this seems to cure other peoples clunking. Ironic that most people seem to have the same problem and on the same corner???

Clunking gone! Just had to use the beaker bar on the lower shock bolt and cradle frame bolt. Got about a full turn on both. I hate torqueing stuff that, I can just hear the bolts snapping in my head.

I had a similar issue with the front clunk a couple of months ago. At the time, I had found and replaced a busted CV joint and a loose tension strut, but still had the clunk at slow speeds. It was by accident that I noticed that the spring tension collar(?) had loosened up. A quick tightening, and all is good. Approaching 100k miles on my set, and they still handle great.
