I can only think of two things that would be wrong with it from what you have mentioned. the springs might not be lined up correctly or your shocks are gone.

ITS NOT YOUR AFTERMARKET SPRINGS, I HAVE THE CRACKING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT LEFT ON MY 01 AND MY SUSPENSION IS STOCK. I TOOK IT IN AND IS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE FRONT BRAKES. THE DEALERSHIP "SUPPOSEDLY" FIXED IT, BUT ITS DOIN IT AGAIN. SO ITS GOIN BACK IN TOMORROW....

You have one or two blown shocks.

If your car's still under warranty, get the shocks replaced. My front ones were leaking, they were the 01 stock parts. from what happened to mine, i'd reccomend getting aftermarket parts.
