Squeaking Noise - Advice needed!

[rxangus]

Hi Guys,

My FD is suffering from an irritating squeak which I have discovered is caused by the nut on the top of the nearside front shock absorber rubbing against the edge of the hole in the bodywork through which it protrudes. (Hard to describe!)

It seems that the strut brace is not tensioned enough to provide clearance between the nut and body. My question is whether I can increase the strut bar tension to provide the required gap or whether the problem is more to do with the wheel/shock alignment itself?

Note I have Zeal adjustable suspension.

I\'ve attached a pic. The problem is immediately in front of the blue boost gauge pipe.

Thanks

Angus
