Default Squeaking noise coming from back after coilover install.

I hear a bit of a squeaking noise. Very minimal. Coming from back when I'm on rough roads. Is that normal. Sounds like it might be from coilover or somewhere in the back.

what coils did you get???? i dont think that's normall unless it is pillow ball mounts which can be noisey you might need a new set. i did my own install and I had to mod the cover so that I could seal up that area from noise since it is not like the stock struts.

I'm thinking it might be pillow ball mounts as well, but it might be something else...

I noticed when I was changing out my springs that there is a lot of noise that comes from that area as well, (drove around for a bit without the rear seats in), and I'm interested in how you sealed up that area exactly...not
