Creaking after lowering

[Bonka bear]

Hi all, so yesterday I installed the HR 50mm springs for my 160, now I'm getting a creaking on the NSR, now I automatically fitted the bump stops to the rears, now I'm not sure whether that was right or not, anyone have any ideas?

Cheers Kai

"... on the NSR..."? What NSR means?

"on the NSR"? What that means?

Near Side Rear, back left basically.

So basically you mean, rear right?
Spring or shock is not properly in place...?

Its passenger side rear. Near side, closest to kerb, rear.

check the springs are sat in the cups correctly. Check shocks, you might have one wearing more than the other and the springs have exposed this. Have a good look at any bushes as again the shift in geometry might be putting a bit extra strain on a wearing part

Thank you, will check all of these, pretty sure the springs were sat correctly, sounds like the noise is coming from the top of the rear shocks, 4 up earlier and it was both sides.
