Default installed tien h techs....now hear a knocking

yea, have a question....installed my tien h-techs on saturday, and ever since the install i hear a knocking/rattling up front on the two struts I didnt know if this was normal for lowering springs on stock shocks, or if it is not, does any body know what the problem is, thanks in advance.

You shouldnt have a knocking. Sounds like a loose bolt. Or you dont have the strut top positioned on the strut right...

re-torque down the front strut tower bolts. everything should be ok after that.
