Are my LCAs binding??

I just installed my LCAs. I'm now have a creaking noise when I go over bumps, or if I push down on the back of the car. I remember reading a thread a while back that if the LCAs are bolted on with the car NOT under load, it could cause LCA bind. Is this true? I know that they were not installed under load. Should I loosen them, jack up the rear axle and retighten them? Thanks.

That creaking means the bushings need to be lubed. Use non petroleum based grease.
