Is it in the front or back? Is your jacks tools and stuff floating by the spare tire loose stuff in the glove compartment.

top hat, top bushing snug against the chassis, anti roll bar tight hmm

is it when your rolling and turning? cv joints? tie rod ends? axle went in smoothly? lug nuts tight?

It really sounds like the nut that holds the spring down (top hat) before you put the strut in the car.

Is the top of the nut to top of the strut same on each side?

Past threads about noise included endlinks for the sway bar simple test take the noisy side off and test.

hmm well would not cutting the bump stops have anything to do with this, like as in the strut and spring can't compress as far as it needs to?
