Check to be sure that you installed washers on the supplied 1/2″ bolts between the swaybar bushings and the mounts. The bolts should be torqued to 53 ft/lbs. If you over tighten them they can make noise, especially if the washers are crushed. This is most often hear in off camber situations. Next, check to be sure that the track bar bracket bolt which extends though the crossmember is tight (30 ft/lbs.) and look for signs of movement between the bracket and crossmember. Sometimes the hole in the crossmember will be elongated which can result in movement/noise. If this is the case you can replace the factory bolt with a 1/2″ bolt which will take up some of the clearance. Finally, check to be sure that your track bar bolts are tight. Very tight (395 ft/lbs).
