Rep Power: 0 its wobble because you didnt lock the top 2 perches on the springs. it thuds because the spring is moving freely up and down the shocks. Thats dangerous and I suggest for you to lock the top 2 perches with the springs.
1. Jack up the car.
2. take wheel off
3. using just your hand, hold the springs and try to move it up. (this is what Im talking about moving freely)
4. move the top 2 locking perch until you have eliminated the spring movement.
5. do no drive the car until you locked the springs into their position. You could damage the whole steering.
