I pulled the springs and checked rebound to fine that they are now rebounding all the way out. I built them with normal rebound and the exact way the paper says. I also used green slim on the red orings. My fronts are fine with no problems. I spoke with our local team driver and he is having the same problem and has since switched back to the standard v2's. is anyone else having these problems??
