whats the allan wranch size that you use on the back shock/ the top bolt a 5mm or 6mm. B/c my buddy stipped the screw on top So I wanna make a sure to use the right size on the other shock.

Okay, first things first. Did you install the bearing on the drivers side or not? If not, found your problem. If you did, are you sure all of the bearings were put back in? The strut bears on the bearings and should make noises if it is not there or if all the bearings were not put back in.

And the rear allen key is 5mm. THIS DIY is your friend!

And please make sure you index the struts correctly!
