I've been battling the same problem with AGXs and Roadmagnets. Alignment guys said they couldn't do it either.

do you hear a pop when you go full left/full right?

Yep. And found out what it is. Go under the hood and losten the strut nut. It is too tight and binding. I am going to have to figure out something on my drivers side. It is binding if i barely tighten and if losen to where it doesn't bind it will come off by hand and vibrate around. Might be a bushing issue now. Will keep you updated.

Still having issues.
Loosening worked a bit. I am still having issues where it will bind either right or left depending what sharp turn you take. Could it be the strut bearings being to large? I have Kyb strut bearings that looked a bit larger than the ones I pulled out of the oem struts.
Not sure.

What hardware did you install on your setup when you put the kybs on?

Go with oem strut bearings.

are you sure you put them in the right place. I was a big dummy and reassembled it wrong one time and had this same issue very annoying. i would pull the struts and remove the top to make sure it was assembled correctly and if it is then what condition the strut bearings are in.

Strut bearings are brand new. I will buy some new ones from auto zone that look more oem and grab some spring compressors as well. Jesus I hate taking these damn things apart. Not hard but It is just 95* to 105* in kentucky these past couple months and only getting hotter.
