Default noise after camber install

installed skunk2 pro camber kit last night,

had to let the shocks go by the bolts under the hood and slip the a arm in over then installed the kits + put the struts back in palce, tightened the adjuster for the camber so it wouldnt move while driving.

I never got an alignment yet but havnt drove it since...

I did long enough to get it from the shop to home but the problem im having is its like a knocking noise in low speeds going down the street and like the springs r shaking it seems...

been in court all day and wont have time to look at it until tomorrow, any ideas on what could be wrong? or going on? everything was fine b4 and we did have to use a bar to pry down on the shocks to get enough clearance to get the ball joints down inside.

maybe the coilovers slipped out of the plates? or somehting? cause i did have to pry on the springs.

Did you tighten down the camber adjustment part on your camber kit?

Quite possible. What instructions did you use when you installed them?

just the simple taking the two nuts off the ball joints under the hood for the oem ball joint, taking the strut bolt off, dropping the strut, sliding the oem arm + joints out, slipping the skunk2 kit in tightening it in place, tightening the camber adjuster, and tightened the strut bolt

im positive everything was done right, why these shocks r being gay i dunno..

can only think i knocked em off putting them back or threw them off when prying on them..
