you did recheck the tightness of your strut shaft bolt to strut cap (big center bolt) tightness after you let the springs settle right? of corse you did! checking the tightness of the suspension components after they have been driven for a few miles is what you do every time!

i recommend taking a 1/2" breaker bar, or at least a 1/2" ratchet out to your car with a (i cant remember) 21mm, or 22mm socket, and tighten those suckers down!

if you dont believe me, and want proof, before tightening them, pop your hood, and from the top watch your shock shaft and bolt, while bouncing that corner of your car...if the shaft/bolt moves up...theres your proof!
