Noise after intalled poltek FR endlinks

I just installed a set of this last Sat and noticed there was a chunking/clicking noise coming from the front. I got this set without instructions. I'm not sure if I installed it wrong. I had STI alum. front control arm and Cusco 21mm swaybar with this endlinks. Sounds like the links was hitting something underneath, but I couldn't figure it out. Please help guys. Pics will be helpful.

Poltec makes STI and WRX endlinks for FR and RR.

What I was asking, in an attempt to help you, is which ones did you buy and which car do you own.

Here are a couple of pics from my installs.

This one is Whiteline links with the stock WRX front bar:



This one is off my STi and shows the Cusco bar with stock links:



Check your Poltec links and make sure they are the same length as the stockers (since they are adjustable). If that's okay, check your bar orientation relative to the pics above. Make sure you installed the bar the correct way (it's common to install it backwards/upside down).

make sure the nuts for the endlinks are tight... most of the time I've had or heard of this sort of thing it because of bolts that seem tight that aren't tight enough.
