I don't think you can do that for the rears

Another thought, is there any chance your shocks are binding somewhere through their stroke? I know my shocks have a spherical upper mount to help them articulate better. Maybe yours are just sticking and the pop is when they release.

By the way you owe me one now. Laying on a cold concrete floor in ~20° weather sucks.

Thank you, and please gimme your PayPal.

Last night I adjusted the buckets all the way up... Still clanks like crazy

As for the strut binding, how would I know/check? (The sound is DEFINITEY) from the springs though.

For those that posted issues with a popping noise or noise when going over bumps. Your issue is you do not have the required helper springs so when you hit a pot hole, bump, or your tire comes off the group, there is no pressure holding your rear springs in the midlink so it's the spring moving...this can be dangerous and your rear spring could come out under the right conditions. My car now drives like it's on rails and is an amazing ride. I have it at the perfect height, no more wheel gap, not slammed, and I can come up an inch or down 2 more inches using the midlink cup.
