I came across a pair of adjustable pep shocks with rezzi's. When I put them on they are very noisy. Here is what it is. When I am looking at the shock there are two springs on it. The top spring is wrapped around 3-4 spacers which limit the compression of the shock. Now these spacers will move up and down making a very noticeable clunking sound when the shocks are compressed/deecompressed. Is this normal? WHat is wrong? What can I do..

Yes, that is normal. I usually spray mine down with WD-40 after every wash. This helps keep any kind of bushing/crossover noise to a minimum.

Buy Fox shocks and you wont have that pboblem :D j/k yes this is normal i prefer dry silicone spray as it doesn't attract much dirt and leaves a film behind thats not oily but use what you got.
