Eibach sway bars making noise

I just installed Eibach sway bars. I had them installed at a local Discount tire. When I turn right or left I can hear a thunk at the front sway bar. The sound is coming from the left front tire area. Anybody have any ideas what that noise may be? I checked all the nuts (only one at each side of the front sway bar) and they are all tight. I don't think it is from the bar twisting, as the sway bars do, that would be more of a squeek. This is definilty a thunk noise. I will take it into the tire place as well to let them take a look. By the way I have the front sway bar at it's stiffest setting up front.

Re: Eibach sway bars making noise

went back to the shop today. They adjusted the small attach arm that attaches the sway bar to the lower control arm up front and the noise went away. I was on hold with Eibach tecnical support when the guy at the shop figured it out. The sway bars actually work better now. I have the front full stiff and the back at the middle setting. What a difference from stock sport package. I took a run up Mount Palomar to test them today. I'm tempted to go full stiff at the rear sway bar as well. Has anyone tried the full stiff on the Eibach rear sway bar yet? Let me know.
