put some rubber gromits on the top of the springs its just
the metal moving the rubber should have come with the kit
but somtimes it dosnt you can get strips of rubber at a
home depot for just a few bucks and cut them into a round
shape a little bit bigger than the spring its always worked for
me....

Most of the above suggestions are good. Another thing you might want to consider is that the spring is perched correctly. If not during compression the spring will rotate a bit and cause a squeaking noise resulting from the friction between spring and the rubber dampening in the shock hat.
