after finally getting to test some flexing out the other day i started getting a sqeak from the rear.. after having some one bounce on the hitch and listening it sounds like its coming from one of the bushings from the rear control arm ( the bar that connects the rear axel to the body wasnt sure if i was calling it the right name) and now ontop of that i started to notice another noise while goin over bumps almost like somethin is loose and clattering... ever since i put these sky jacker nitros in this has started i really think they are tooooo stiff the libby. any ideas on how to cure the sqeaking and what to check for that may be clunking around? also for some reason the directions on the rock krawler lift say to put the spring spacer on the bottom. idk if this is really right because it looks like the bump stop may be hitting the spacer when the spring compresses. i think that may be one part of the problem. :banghead: any help would be muchhhh appreciated. thanks guys

the squeaking noise might be the rear spring spacers, my RK lift did that kind of.
