Adex Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 Try some white grease (like you use on caliper slider pins), it wont dry out like wd40. (not as quickly anyway). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shocks Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 I've had this its bloody annoying and have shown Kent struts the problem, its the plastic catching on the body lid where it bolts to he boot, plastic gets warm and expands ever so slightly. The noise is terrible on mine. I shaved the plastic ever so slightly and it stopped it a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
