squeaking from rear shocks

I just installed a pair of Koni single adjustable shocks about 2 weeks ago and I'm starting to hear sqeaking coming from the shock bushings. I had this problem on the last pair of shocks I had which were KYB AGX adjustable shocks and they sqeaked so much and so loud it was embarrassing. How do i stop this sqeaking???

Did you tighten the upper mount nut enough, you can also try putting poly bushing super grease on the upper shock bushings.

You can use white lithum grease on the bushings.. This might help...
