    Clicking sound after replacing coilovers

    I replaced old coilovers with new ones and now there is a clicking sound when I turn. They are a different brand but I did not change anything. The only thing I noticed is the top sway bar end link on the left is higher than the right where it connects to the coilover. I connected them at the same height as on the old coilovers. Could this be the problem? I don't understand why the heights changed. I had the car jacked up evenly. There was no clicking with the old coilovers. Thanks in advance for any replies.

    What are you running?

    It does sound like something is loose.…

    First I would double check to make sure everything is torqued down correctly. Second, if I am understanding correctly one sides swaybar is resting higher then the other? If so, or if everything is torqued and you are still having the issue, then I would reinstall the swaybar end links while having the wheels preloaded if you did not do this originally.
