91 hatch front LCA..............pop pop pop!!!!!!!!

about a week ago i put my front LCA's w/ poly bushings in my hatch

ever since then there has been a popping noise coming from where the LCA bolts to the subframe when i turn going under 5mph
i heard about not having the right sleeves in the bushings but i took them off the car and put the bolt thru and it looked to be correct

i put grease all over where the LCA bolts the the subframe and the noise went awayso i know thats the problem area , is this normal or are my control arms going to fall off

did you torque the bolts down when the suspension was loaded or when the suspension was unloaded?

Dont think that matters if they are poly bushings.
