Rear Creaking Sounds after installing Alldogs Offroad Rear Springs

[Muckle]

I swapped out the stock rear springs with the Alldogs after also doing the front springs and being very impressed with those. Upon swapping out the rears, I now have a creaking sound coming from the rear suspension. This happens when I'm removing something as simple as a 20lb bag of pellets from the bed of the truck, when I enter and exit the vehicle, etc.

Reached out to Alldogs and so far they've suggested verifying everything is torqued correctly, which I did (sway bar link at 62, bottom strut bolt at 72). Also verified the springs are seated correctly.

Any other ideas? I've been known to ask silly questions before so I'm happy to make a fool of myself to solve this problem too.

My Icon springs have the same squeak, haven’t had a chance to dive in? But I suspect the OEM springs had a plastic coating spiral of the springs, the Icons don’t. Thinking about wrapping them with electrical tape just to see if the noise goes away? Then a more permanent solution of some kind?
