I tightened the rear shocks bolts really tight, the sqeaking seems to have stopped but it still feels liek somthing is rattling whenever I hit a bump or go out of the driveway... still waiting on someone to call currently 12:48 my time. Sorry its just a pain to run back and forth between the computer and the car to see if someone has responded... hence why I would prefer a phone call.

Still get the clanking sound when I take it out to drive... I can't seem to figure out what it is. Gah this is annyoing lol. The squeaking is gone thought so I guess that is a good thing. Be up for another two hours if someone can call... number is at top of thread. Thanks for help guys.
