use the little red search button at the top of the page or take a look at our FAQ because its all answered in there.

Popping springs means you have a bad install

They're just not seated right most likely. Whenever my car goes on a lift, there's always a chance the GC's won't seat again correctly.

I've had it happen one out of the five times it's been in the air since I've had the setup, which is only about a month.
