They stiffen the chassis and reduce flexing of it during cornering etc. Thats why if you notice where they are placed it is usually at the weakest point or most flexable point of the chassis. In between the struts front and rear as an example.

But back on topic it might be your bushings that are squeaking tends to happen after a drop.

Get under the car and check if something wasn't put back right.

maybe you scraped your exhaust and the heatshield on your catalytic convertor is rattling?

That would be my guess to..you may want to check your CV's while you are at it. A buddy of mine when his car was dropped they tore the cv boot (dont ask me how) while installing the suspension thus causing him some issues.

Could be a loose bolt, heat shield rattling on the cat. Try to find out where it's coming from, that would help.

sounds like a busted shock. Check around the spring and see if there is a lot of oil around there. If so you might have blown shock.
