I recently installed King shocks on my 4 door Badlands and I am experiencing some popping noises in some cases. Upon inspection, it looks like I am getting some binding on the lower spring with the sway bar arm. I am assuming this is where it is coming from. It very well could be that it is something I did, I just can't see what. If anyone has any ideas, or a Badlands they can check as well with King shocks.

Use a floor jack and flex your suspension. You should be able to replicate the rub.

Just tried that and no way I can get it to compress all the way. I'll try to mount a GoPro in there. From what I could compress, I don't see how it can touch without something else flexing/moving. Now to check all the bolts for proper torque.

Orientation maybe?

To flex out your suspension on a jack, you’re gonna have to remove the spring.
