The plastic spacer doesn't slide as easy as the fiber glass piece when the spring twist during a full turn.

But, they don't buy it.
Customer swap to Eibach at the end and I sent the VTF back to H&R.

So, there is solution pretty much.

It start happening on the later batch when H&R changed the spring spacer material.
Hmmm.. does this only happen to some? Because the set installed on my brothers F85 doesn't do it and his is actually set lower than mine. I hate hearing this sound!
