New Rear Shocks = Squeaky rear suspension
I put on new Monroe Sensa-trac shocks a week or so ago (I know not the best, but the best I could do at the time, and it accomplishes what I wanted).
My question is, after I installed the shocks, a few days later I've got an annoying, constant high-pitched squeak coming from the right rear wheel area. I think it's coming from the bottom of the shock. Should I have put grease on those bushings on the shocks? Is it possible the nut backed off some on the shock bolt?

The top bushing, the bottom bushing, or both? I'll try that this weekend probably. Rolling that carpet back is a big PITA so I need plenty of time to do it. I'll try that and see if that works. I think it's coming from under the wheel well so that might be it.
