Do a search. This is a very common issue with the Skunk2 setup.

check the spring to make sure its seated correctly on the bottom spring perch.

Yup I would have to agree with these guys. Get rid of the skunk2. I suggest the buddy club n+ or the d2. IM if interested in either.

Make sure the rubber that goes around the spring on the bottom is around the area that contacts the metal perch. AKA Metal to metal makes that clanking pop noise.
