Rear springs squeek even after putting fuel line over the top of the coils

Im having a hard time eliminating the squeeking noise the rear springs (eibach pro's) make. Standing in front of the rear fender and pushing the car back and forth for makes the sound. Likewise going over any rough pavement also makes the springs squeek. Im running out of ideas on how to eliminate the noise. I even greased the tops of the mounts hopeing that would help. Maybe its time to replace the rubber piece?

I just took the isolator out last month and used a piece of heater hose around 3/4 of the top coil and no noise with my Eibachs. Are you sure it isn't coming from some where else?

Im pretty sure. I put my ear right next to the wheel well and shock the car and its coming from above the tire so I think its the spring. Also I didn't start doing this until I installed the springs. Im not ruling out that its no a bushing. Im going to drop the rear end again this weekend and look into it more.

I had a squeak after my Strano install, turned out I needed to lube the rear swaybar bushings.
