lots of noise

Hey everybody,
Just installed my skunk2's tonight and man do they look sweet! Im going to have to get some pics up soon but I do have a question. I know that the spings and struts are going to make some noise along with me needing an alignment after installing but these are poping quite a bit when I turn and I am kind of having trouble getting everything even. anyone have any pointers for me?? My car is only a month old so I really want to be careful and not f*ck something up.

thanks:confused:
 
What the instructions failed to tell you is that you needed to remove the bearings from the stock front spring perches that do not re-install. It is a little black plastic circle with the bearings inside. simply stick your finger through the hole(where the strut would have gone) and pull...It should have a little bit of grease around it(in my case it was a greenish color). that needs to be installed in the top of the little metal spring perch of your SKunk2's. put it in the skunks where it came out of the stock ones...(thumb) LEt me know if you understaood that, or found the peice...

EDIT: Basically what you are hearing is the Skunk2 spring perch popping due to the friction of it trying to turn. Without that little bearing, the perch is "sticking" to the underside of your stut tower. Thus, the pop when it can take any more friction, and frees itself.
