Default Lift install question

Just wondering what all needs to be tightened after the jeep is off the lift under its own weight. After my install I was hearing a popping sound and read that you have to tighten the LCA's after the jeep is on the ground. Is there anything else like that because I am hearing a new noise.

Whenever I backup say like into a parking spot or the driveway as soon as I pull forward to drive away and turn the steering wheel I here a popping sound. I only here it in this scenario and won't hear it again until I back up and then drive forward after being parked for a while.

it only does it if I back up after being parked and as soon as I pull forward and turn the wheel I hear a pop and that is it. It is not a constant noise and I don't hear it any other time I turn the wheel.

Check your track bar on both ends. Trust me. Had the same problem.
