When I turn it, the tension increases greatly, then a loud snap like it is at top of thread, tension is released, do it again, same thing. Drive on rough road; it has settled well. When I measure front fender lip = 27". BUT the measuring point rear of control arm as shown in manual, it measures 5.0 inches which is a good 1.25 inch low. I'm using 18 cm / 2.54 = 7.25 inches. I know it is a range and 5 inches is probably acceptable, but why the discrepancy?? I have similar problem on the rear.
