squeaky suspension

i just installed my neuspeed race springs today, but they seem kinda squeaky. is this any way to fix this? im pretty sure all the bolts are tightened as much as possible. im thinking that they are just settling into place, does this sound right? thanks for the help.

I thought I was the only one...

It's mostly the rear .... right?

Yeah, mine squeaks....sounds like an old bed when people are humping on it...don't laugh, I'm SERIOUS!!!

But I've

1) Grown to love hearing my suspension doing it's job, and if it get's annoying, I TURN UP THE STEREO!

2) I've come to the conclusion that it's prolly the camber kit bushings squeaking. Not the springs. But I'm just guessing here. I don't know.

squeek? i had clanking/metal rubbing noises but its cause of the dead coils... squeeking is probably caused by bushings.. i mean what else would it be

I don't think so...I never worry. I had mine pro installed so I'm not worried at all. Now all I have to worry about is my shox...but then again...the Koni's are in the garage waiting to be installed!!!

prblem fixed. well, it turns out it wasnt the springs. when the car was lowered, it brought the exhaust even closer to my sway bar which was making a noise when they hit in turns and over bumps. it did this before, but not as bad. but i fixed it by going to the hardware store and puchasing a thick piece of rubber tubing that was the exact length of the sway bar in that section. the tubing fits perfect in that section and doesnt move around anymore, but i still used 4 zipties to secure it on. it doesnt make any noise anymore, so im happy.
