Default rattling shock/spring?

for some reason my passenger rear has a weird rattle, and i had someone drive the car and i would listen in the back...well the noise is coming from where the shock would be...

when you turn the wheel quick left and right, it would rattle when you turn the wheel right...i took out the shock/spring setup today and though maybe it was on crooked, so i readjusted the placement, reinstalled it, and it still does it...the rattling is very loud...

anyone have any clues why it is doing this?

I dont know but Im having the exact same problem coming from the passenger side like a rattle/clicking/clanking sound when I hit small bumps. I even got new tokico illuminas and installed them today and it still rattles. Im stumped also

ok, again, its the shock/spring, it has nothing to do with my lca bushings or my trailing arm bushings...all those were replaced with OEM honda parts...

right now the shock is kyb agx and spring is eibach sportline...maybe i should replace the shock mount...
