Default Lowering Shackle issues

I just installed some Slammed1 drop shackles on my 03 RC. I had a few minor issues. First off they installed fine. I greased them correctly.

First issue is i had to torque the top bolt with the truck jacked up because there is no clearance to the torx head vs the frame with it on the ground. I torqued the other bolt on the ground.

My main problem is that when the truck corners/weight shift i get a noticeable popping sound from behind me. It is a nuisance and it started after the shackle install.. so what could be wrong here? Bolts are installed correctly.

Thanks
