Lowered my Celica, UPDATE* More Pics Options

[jordisonjr]

Alright so I recently Lowered my celica on Tein springs. It looks great and everything, Im really happy with the ride and everything, but there's just one problem. When the car is stopped or moving very slowly when i turn the wheel I hear a clunking sound, almost like what a ball joint would sound like.

The sound only comes when Im moving very slowly or stopped and crank the wheels pretty hard.
I looked at it with a few buddies and we saw that when you turn the wheel the strut and spring both turn as well. Now I don't know a whole lot about cars and this is the first one i have lowered, but should the spring be moving as well? or did I do something wrong?

I did my research before lowering it and even followed the instructions on the stickies, and I've never come across someone with this issue, and yes I did use the search button and found nothing.

Someone please help me out cause I don't know what i did wrong.




And Of course, here are some before and after pictures, and I'll post them once the springs settle as well.

BEFORE:



AFTER:


I think it looks waaaay better, and it rides great, all I need is some 18's and I'll be set

UPDATE: Got some new pcs I took quick with my point and shoot, Should have some legit photos once my rims come in which i order last week.

I had the same problem with my car man, tein springs as well, i was told to take it apart and grease up everything even the top of the spring and the boots they sit in, it makes all movement nice and greasy no sticking it worked well!
