I had no squeaking from the shocks themselves, but my trunk did have some squeaks and creeks(sp). This was because my suspension was stiffer after changing to the AGX's and H&R springs. I do not know if you also lowered your car. If you did, try putting some grease where the trunk arms go into the rear deck. I had squeaking from there. I also had some cracking sound from the rear plastic trim on the back edge of the trunk, where the trunk lid rest when it is closed. If you did not lower your car then the suspension should be pretty close to stock and your ride should not be any stiffer. At this point I would look at the shocks themselves. Have someone push down on the back of the car as you try to listen for the noise.

Thats odd. I haven't heard of that. I have AGX's in the rears myself

Noise form everything settling when you put the car back on the ground should be normal.

Did you rap your springs with the Radio Shack wire loom?

Keep track of that noise because if it doesn't go away, you may have to inspect how you put everything together.

Thanks everyone. Yes i lowered it with the hated Ground Controls :X so it is a stiff suspension. But the struts are riding great. I will try putting grease there because when i had my dad push on it, the sound wasnt from the actual shock.
Does the wire loom on the springs help?

thanks guys

i have a similar squeak but my suspension is completely stock except for a RSB. anybody guess what that might mean?
