Ive just had my car lowered Ultra Low back and front.
Ive noticed that when go over bumps that a creeking noise is coming from the back of the car. I was pushing the car up and down this morning and the noise was definately there. I put short shocks on the front but havent changed the back ones. Could it be the shocks?

If its all brand new you can expect a few squeeks while it wears in but it should subside in a few hundred km's.

Did you lower it yourself? Did the springs seat themselves properly when you lowered it? Is the noise coming from both sides or just one?
