Just today, I noticed something weird with my suspension… I can hear clicking & popping sounds (from what I think is the front suspension and/or front brakes) while driving slow… i.e. 20km/h. Also, sometimes when I brake, I can actually hear a fairly loud ‘pop’ sound.

I just got my balljoints, inner and outter tie rods replaced and I have Battle Version Tension Control rods. I also got an alignment after all that was done.

Also, I have z32 brakes up in the front with SS brake lines.

Anyone have any idea what this might be?

You have coilovers? Pillow ball mounts made noise on my coils.

no I don’t have coilovers… I have KYB AGX’s with sportlines.  
Also, I have whiteline swaybars with their endlinks and bushings.

lowering springs often slip out of the perch’s natural position and then pop back in

if the springs aren’t matched by the shocks you will get excessive movement as the suspension unloads
