If anything i overtorque them with 1/2 dewalt that i use to remove my 18 wheeler lug nuts lol. I think this may comming from driveline, ttansfer case and rear end. Too many street hits i guess

Update
Just started to rain. Quick 9/16 and 5/8 and front sway bar end links were off. Took it for a spin around block. Frickin boat. Lol. Anyway. Poping is still there. In the front and rear. Looks like more on driver side would pop easily than passanger side. Rear dont know where. So if i brake hard it would poop once in the front and rear. Than next second if i hit gas it would pop back. Looks like something is moving.
So on the front could be upper/lower control arms, or ball joints
Reear dont know
And like i said, on wet roads pop easier than on dry weather

Installed DJM LCA and shock relocation brackets. Stock height vs Belltech lowering kit there is difference 2° in drivrshaft angle. Now im gonna drive it for little bit and see how much driveshaft angle DJM relocation kit fix

After short hwy test looks like it rides much softer on patholes vs belltech setup. And dfive shaft angle is 1° off from factory angle, not bad fix for 4" drop in the rear
Also on hard braking clunk from the rear is gone, now i have to figure out clunk noise from both front sides when is wet outside. Must be darn ball joints
