Just a quick update, after being lowered for a couple of weeks, I started hearing random popping sounds coming from the right front, then a day or two later the left side started doing the same thing. I thought something was seriously wrong so I pulled the front tires and inspected everything to make sure nothing was loose. Turns out everything was fine and after some research online I had a good idea that it was the springs rubbing against the rubber seat. So I spent a good three hours pulling the front struts again and putting some grease between the springs and rubber spring seat. It's been about a week and no more noises from the front. Turns out doing this was mentioned in the how-to guide as an optional item. Unfortunately I didn't pay attention to it the first time. 

 

I forgot to mention, this time I picked up this oxygen sensor socket from Nothern tool to use on the 21mm nut on the top hat. Although I could only do about a quarter turn at a time It worked good.
