Strange noise coming from backside after lowering car
For some reasons this is only occuring on my passenger rear side. Seems like everytime I hit moderate bump/dip, you can hear the sound coming back the rear passenger end the most. I'm lowered about a bit over 2 inches on GC's and my tire is tucked under my fender. Could it be my tire hitting the fender causing this louder than normal sound (keep in mind it's only on my passenger side). Or is there something wrong with my axles or any other suspenion related part that might have be altered because the car got lowered.
thanks for any input

doesnt appear to be any marks.
I searched for "strange sounds" in the archived search and came up with this

Seems like it is a common problem for some. Someone mentioned greasing the coils, but would that mean just take off your wheel and spray it on the coils itself or do I have to take the assembly out to do it.
my fault for not searching first, i thought it was quite uncommon so wasnt expecting anything

make sure the top of the shock isn't poking out way too high. If it is it could be that you forgot a bump stop washer or one of your upper mount bushings fell out and the back is only riding on the spring.
