Just swapped my suspension out last night and this post and the following link were invaluable.
The only issue I had was when I removed the rear springs, I found the rubber pads above and below the spring were worn and deformed. The lower pads are still usable for now, but the top ones were well deformed.

As it was late at night and I needed to drive, I fit them back in as best I could. As soon as I drove off the noise was horrible, the spring seemed to be rubbing metal.
Today I ordered new ones, but its over a week to get them so I made some temporary ones from 5mm heavy duty rubber

The noise is gone, so they must be working
Thanks again for the great post
