Just lowered my car with FRPP B springs and strange 10 way adjustable shocks and struts, MM camber plates along with other stuff. Well i got it all together good and checked everything over and it appeared to be fine. When I go over bumps though I get almost like a clicking sound in the front of the car when im going over it. It almost sounds like the strut is rattling around. I checked everything and everything is tight and looks good. Could this be the coils on the spring hitting eachother? Maybe the strut is loose? OR anything else?

Make sure your spacers are correct in you cc plates. You bought the best but the correct install is important. The other thing to check (which I had a problem with that was unrelated) is your brake dust covers. I had a rivit break loose and caused me some noise.

i have noise from my suspension. my C/C plates were installed incorrectly(along with my coilovers) by that shop that i hired, and there was a ton of noise. once i fixed it, it just squeaks now, which i have narrowed down to control arm bushings. bascially as i was told by one of MM's tech people is that the plates themselves dont make noise, but they can amplify a noise that is present.
