Front suspension twang noise fix- TSB 629541

I know that a few peeps including myself have had a weird twang noise up in the front suspension. I found this TSB that might be a solution for some.. not sure but here's what it says anyway:

Problem: A twang noise from the front suspension that sounds like spring contact.

Solution: Use silencing tubes for the 1990 Accord to repair. Part number 52442-SM1-A00, H/C 4001947

I havent tried it but might look into it when I install my new springs.. FWIW

Hmm... I'm not sure if it's the same thing, but I heard something like that when going out of my driveway and going down a little bump. I installed the fram stiffener from the '02 Civic and it solved that problem. Do you have an '01 Civic? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

ya thats mainly what causes the noise... stock springs were supposed to come with spring isolators but some cars(including mine) didnt come with one..
