rattle after lowering

I recently had my car lowered about 1.5" w/ Hypercoil springs. Now, it seems that I have a rattle noise, coming from the front, driver's side of the car. I've triple checked all the bolts that would have had to be disturbed in the installation process and I can't find anything. I even checked all the bolts on the passenger side, just in case. It almost sounds like its the swaybar hitting on something, but I can't tell...You can hear the noise on the small bumps, but when ya hit bigger ones, but noise DOES NOT get any louder. Has anybody had a problem like this?

Check your swaybar endlinks to make sure they haven't loosened up. I had the same problem on the 95 I had after a shock change. Why a shock change affected it I have no clue, unless the monkeys doing the change took the swaybar off for some reason.
