Yeah, skunk2s are really noisy. Definetly not worth the money they cost IMO.

If your endlinks aren't real tight they will make that noise.

U need to make sure there positioned the best way possible and that there greased. I started having "popping" noises with my Ground Controls after about a year of use......i just made sure they were greased and positioned right. It usually popped when making turns.....

Do you have any rubber spacers between the spring and tophat? If not you'll need to grease them like Charles said. The friction will create the binding/popping noise. They will always clattler while driving straight on rough roads though.
