Default Clunking noise...

Hey, for quite a while i have been having this clunking noise everytime i take off normally. It usually just clunks once then its fine and i have no clue what it is. I have an upper phb relocation kit and rod end phb. I dont know if that has to do with anything, i just thought id throw that in there.

Also, i saw on the directions that came with the phb that u are supposed to have ur e-brake zip-tied to ur upper phb, or phb (i forgot which one) and said that if its not zip tied it could cause some road noise. When i took off my phb and upper phb i didnt see anything zip tied, could this have anything to do with it or is that just a bunch of nonsense. If so, where exactly do i zip tie it at. Anyone have any pics? Thanks

road noise meaning the e-brake cable is hitting the undercarrige when your driving over bumps i would assume, i dont think an e-brake cable would make a clunk
