As previously mentioned by another member, there was a theory that if the bushings for the lower damper mount are possibly to long, once torqued down in that location, it will not allow to properly torque down the camber bearing bolt, thus creating a potential knocking there. So it is possible that the damper being removed allowed that specific camber bearing to remain tight. The damper slid out of the mounts easily though, so I don't believe that the bushings were out of tolerance creating enough space do make noise.
