Default Noise rear suspension!

I had my car lowered on the stock bolts, did not not cut the bushings and sway bars we're replaced for the z51 sway bars. When I go over speed bumps the rear makes like a rubbing noise of some sort and I cant figure out what it is. Please help thanks guys.

Hey there. It's tough to say exactly what may be squeaking or rubbing down there without being in the car. Since you lowered the car on the stock lowering bolts I would check the stock spring pads for any kind of visible wear marks. Maybe post some pictures up of the suspension after lowering, maybe theres something visual that's out of place.

Let us know if we can help!

From what I can remember the noise started after the sway bars were installed. I don't think it has anything to do with the lowering of the car.
