please help

i just installed springs installed and now when i turn right i hear a cracking noise. It is kind of clicking but not repetitively so might not be axle. It sounds like two clikcing noises repeated. It only happens when i turn right and is gettin pretty loud. Tomorow i will take the wheel off and check but what do you guys think? i really need some help.

spring may not be tightened down completely.

I had the same thing when I first installed my Tanabe GF210's. I never figured out what it was, but it went away after a few hundred miles. Maybe they just need to settle while you drive around for a while.

I don't know, but probably much like the 2 pieces at the top of this pic. Theres a ring where they fit in. I doubt that's damaged though unless you really screwed up installing them.

Or like the fatter parts where it holds the spring on the 2 struts on the right. Hope this helps.

Edit: I have the pictured parts for sale though, if you think you damaged anything...
