I recently installed my Tein S tech springs. Now when ever i hit a crack or a little bump in the road, my suspension makes clanking noise like the top 3 bolts are loose and the strut asem. is boucing? I have checked and tightened all bolts again on all the suspension, they are all tight, none are loose. Has anyone had this problem if so what can i do or what should be my next step.
Thanks guys.

I don't think I'm really a guru or anything, but...
When you mounted the springs into the struts, were you sure that the springs lined up correctly with the strut seat? They have to be set in there a specific way and if they're not lined up right, you might get that clanking sound.
