I did too at first because the stockers didnt do it but they were a single spring.Im sure some guys will tell u different but its normal for the noise when u have 2 or more springs all compressing together!!!I spent over $2000 and have the same thing!!!At 1st i was like WTF!!! then took a second to think about it!!!LOL!!
