Most common reason people will get ticking in the corners or going over bumps with their newly refurbished suspension is because they do NOT leave enough space between the upper spring perch and the strut bearing, These need to be completely isolated from each other because as the strut bearing is bolted to the body shell and remains stationary, the upper spring perch twists as you twist the steering wheel. If you do not have enough spacing between two plates (washers) then they will bind with eachother resulting in the clunking/banging. This also holds true for adjustable camber plates.Last edited by SkiFree; 03-16-2012, 01:51 PM.

The most important missing piece of information is what camber plates were used.
If the camber plates you used have simple spherical bearings, like the GC race plates, the popping noise (and a pull in the steering) is from friction in the bearing. Lubrication of the bearing will help, but nothing will eliminate it. On track or when racing it won't be a problem as steering deflections aren't large. But on the street it is a bit of a pain.The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.
