Re-did the suspension with a spring compressor properly and it was gone.
I used a spring compressor with my new Com-C's with the Koyo bearings and have no noises at all, running them with RCE Yellow springs. I think using a spring compressor is important to getting the geometry right on the top of the strut shaft and bearings when tighetning down the top nut.
