clicking?

ok ive had my sportlines on for about a month and now when i turn at low speeds and brake a little harder i feel and hear a clicking noise, it sounds like my springs are settling or moving, is there anyone else with this problem?? all of my bolts seem to be tight.

Is it only when you make a sharp turn?

Does it feel like your running over small speed bumps almost?

no its just a sharp pop/click, sometimes its worse than others. i really need to figure this out, i hate it. it was ok for about 2 or 3 weeks then it started happening, it happens with a accelerate or brake a little harder too, do you think my front springs are out of the rivet?

This happened to me when we first installed sportlines on my sunfire. Come to find out that the springs were actually moving. We put it on a lift and you could physically move the spring around the strut with your hand.

Did you use a spring compressor?
