NOISE From my Tokico Blue struts

I finally got my tokico blues installed with Eibach springs
but form the Rear/Right side the strut is making a noise as if a screw is loose (or like two small pieces of metal hitting one another) when I run over little bumps on the road.
The struts were bought used, and they looked in good condition.
Does anyone know what that could be

Like MAtt said, it's probably the mount or the spring isolators (rubber hose thingy that wraps around the spring to prevent chaffing against the perch).

make sure the bushing that the spring sits in is properly put together also it could be just the spring setting. Lift the rear end up in the air then put a jack under the tire of the side thats making that noise. lift up and see what happens and look for what clicks
