There is some problem with a low speed only suspension noise that I have not been able to identify. I will do a little searching on here and start a post in the suspension section if I do not find an answer.

Did you install the plastic piece from your OEM springs? It sits on the top of the coil spring. Lube up the end links and strut bar rubber cushions. Just a thought
