Might be the shock spring binding. Do you have coilovers or stock shock/springs?

Maybe the other axle is bad.

Have you tried re-torquing the upper control arm castle nut? If that nut is loose or the bushing between the upper control arm/knuckle assembly is worn it could make a popping sound. Being that it's a new camber kit the bushing shouldn't have issues but, worth taking a second look.
Also, re-torque the control arm's strut tower nuts.

Here's a vid of installation in case you need it... also, grow a beard like that dude's in the video and your cool points will rise:
