Default clunking noise after installing springs/strut

I just installed the Tokico HP series suspension system on me DA9. sometimes when i go over a bump and then turn, i hear a clunking noise on the left side of my car in the front. it sorta sounds like something is rubbing or knocking on something else..but im not sure. also, i havent done an alignment yet. does anyone know what this could be?

thanks

I had the same problem after my springs were installed. I had to tighten the stabilizer bar link a little and the problem was gone. super quick fix at any muffler/brake shop or by yourself.

Check to see if the upper control arm is hitting the inner fender during suspension compression.

yes, definately check the stabilzer and see if the any play on it. you'll need to get under and it inspect it. check the pinch bolts on your forks, check the the bolts on your pillow mounts, and inspect bushings.
