Bad Vibrations

[be34st]

Installed a new CSB about a month ago. I get in my car this morning, driving out of my complex I hit a puddle of water and my wheels spun a little bit. Ever since that happened I'm getting a vibration from what seems to be the rear the car, that is spped sensitive. FML. Back under the knife she goes.

I'm hoping I just didnt install something right and that it's not a new issue that has come up.

Deep enough to bend a wheel or make a weight fall off.

by pulling the center support as close as you can towards the front of the car as much as you can and then tighten it.

= pre-load. 4-6mm (~3/16") is the BMW spec.
