are you trying to turn the strut rod with the allen key? That is meant to hold the strut from spinning while you tighten the nut down to the correct torque.

Have you watched the tutorial on NissanVersaTech.com to make sure you are doing everything correctly?

When I first did my springs I had a clunk as well. The next day I took them off compressed the springs more and made sure they were as tight as they possibly could be.
