I seriously doubt its your shocks. Poly bushings do squeak if you don't grease them enough. Try to take a look at those.

from what i could tell the noise is comming from the rear of the car where there are no poly bushings...!
You should have had alot of extra parts,,
you just need to unbolt yours, turn the entire thing around and run the short stud you have going to nothing,,through the mount, then use a lock washer and the other nut you didn't use, then you should have a "saucer shaped" washer against the shock held on with a lock washer and the nut your using now.

how much where those strut mounts? and where did u get them? i need new ones and i also have some other stuff to do to the strut towers but for now i need new ones of the strut mounts and i want good ones.
i got them from spohn...for 173 with shiping... they kick *** when i took the old one out i spun both the barring and there was no comparison...also they have grate customer service ...on one of the new nut that comes with the mounts one was not threaded. so i had to use an old one which looks like crap. so i called them and asked where i could get one that looked the same and they said that as soon as they get some in they will ship me one for free..spohn kicks ***:hail:
