Default Weird suspensin problem

Okay first problem I have had with the car. I jacked it up to change the oil at a buddys house and my suspension kept clicking when I was jacking it up and when I let it down the front of the car was sitting higher. What could this be, I cant say exactly what suspension I have because I dont know for sure it was on the car when I bought it, its either koni 5-ways, or eibach 5ways. What could this be and how do I fix it.

what happens when u push down on the front end?

something is either stressing or conflicting with something

if it makes a sound when u push on it, have a friend push on it while u pin point the sound

Normally when you jack up the car, the wheels will hang which makes them fall down into a set like this \ / - the lines represent the wheels. Once you put the car back down, it will still have a little tilt to the wheels, but once you go and drive around, they straighten back up.
