I installed new tokicos/eibachs in the front and then I replaced my pads/rotors and now there's a fairly loud "click" every time I hit a bump. I can't hear it in the car, I can only hear it when the windows are down. Does anybody know what this clicking noise is? Could it be my LCAs? The dust boot on both of 'em are totally shot, I think that might be it but I'm not sure...

Raise the front wheels off of the ground and check for play in the wheel. It could be the sway bar end links also. The lower control arm and the ball joint is integral and gets replaced as a unit.

I had a similar problem when I did my Tok/Eib's. My problem was the cup that the spring sits in was slightly larger than the hole in the guard around the wheel well. When the spring compressed some I'd hear the guard snap past the cup. 30 seconds with a dremmel and I was good. Hope that your problem is this simple.
