You need to take it out now and index them so the ends of the coils sit properly. Then the noise should go away. Right now your springs are not flat on the seats. Refer to step 19 in the DIY.
If that doesn't fix it, then you have a loose nut somewhere in the front suspension. Since you're taking them all out again, make sure they're torqued to spec.
