clicking noise in front end after spring install...

alright, I installed my Eibach Sportlines and after the install I immediately noticed a clicking in the front end when steering at low speeds (it does not happen at 15mph+) and I can feel this in the pedals. I installed them properly and followed directions even though I have done this before. I am wondering if anyone could possibly know what this is or what would be causing it? I really hope its not my cv joints...
thanks for helping

My cobalt does the same thing too. And I have no suspension upgrades. No one has really figured out what the clicking was. It's still a mystery.

You might want to check your CV joints.
