coil bind?

mack · Jul 4, 2005

i did a search and didn't find much, my driver side coil is binding and hitting the RE trackbar mount when it's fully compressed, i'm not sure how to fix this, the setup is RE 4.5" zj springs with ASCO spacers, upper and lower adjustable control arms, RE HD trackbar and frame mount.
any help would be great, the sound is really getting annoying

thanks.

check if your coil is seated correctly. I had the same problem, it was not seated correctly...

yeah, i looked at that already, could it be the axle is not centered all the way, but i think it's close.

Slow... still don't know what i am swaping. And i have always had my springs rub on the track bar mount. Justnever bothered me... Hows the rear end doing for you?

coil bind, by definition is when one or more of your coils is bottoming out on an adjacent coil. The coils are collapsing and cannot compress any further. In your case, the coil is rubbing on an adjacent part. Doesn't sound like coil bind. Check your castor setting.
