Default Coilovers in, something not right not???????????

Just put some coilovers in and some weird noise is coming from the back left suspension everytime I hit a bump. The coilover is placed right, so could it be my shock???thx

Did you put the black plastic rings under the sleeves around the shock? Lot's of people leave those out and it rattles a lot. Also, some brands just make noise. Mine do occasionally especially on the rear.

I know sometimes the spring isnt seated correctly, and it makes a popping noise as it slips around the top or bottom of the shock. I'd say double check those.
