Default Popping sounds when going over bumps in the road

A couple months ago I had some coilovers installed, and a little while afterward, I hit a decent sized bump in the road. Now when I go over certain bumps in the road, the passenger side of my car makes this strange popping sound. Sometimes it sounds like it comes from the front, other times it sounds like it comes from the rear. I have no idea what it could be. I searched and found this: https://www.audiforums.com/forum/sho...=popping+sound. Could it be the strut bearings are bad on my passenger side? Any of you have any ideas or suggestions?

Probably control arms, or TRE, or sway bar links... all common problems and should come up in searches.
