Hardtop with stiff suspension for DD
 

I know this is m.netish but what the hell.

Those of you with stiff suspension on your DD, how tight are your hardtop latches? Mine is hopping around a bit with the new FM springs. When I tightened it down it made some creaking noises, just the weather stripping?

mine is tight and my springs are stiffer than the FM. I'm using 9/6. It creaks a lot especially entering and exiting parking lots with an incline. I assume the creaking is the top flexing against the body but who knows.

Mine are as tight as they can be, it creaks over any little bump/uneven surface.
I have the eibach pro springs

Mine is tight as well. However, after the install of the roll bar, almost all of the noises coming from the hardtop ceased.

Looks like I have nothing to worry about. Thanks.

my shit rattles like its the end of the fucking world with the hardtop on. Latches are tight as fuck. Maybe too tight.

mine only creaked the first time pulling out of the driveway or any weird bumps requiring articulation. wipe some teflon spray (spray on a rag) along the inside edge of the top where the seal is or wax it real good. might help.
