Coilspring ?

Coilspring ?
I just installed my 6 inch Skyjacker suspension system a couple of days ago and it looks awsome and rides way better than I expected. Although it seems that the coilsprings in the front are making a very annoying squeaking noice when I go over a bump or when the spring compresses. I believe that it's caused by the spring rubbing on the rubber spacer on the top. I was wondering if anyone has ever experienced anything like this with their vehicle and what can be done to fix it? I would really appreciate any advice that some of you might have. I have already sprayed it with lithium grease but it is still doing it. And I was also wondering if its just something that needs to wear away after some time of usage.
Thanks,

Fixed It!!!!!
My mechanic forgot to lube the lower shock bushing that attaches to the control arm. So I hooked the grease gun up to the zerk fitting and lubed that sucker. No no more noise. But the kit rides great. No real change to the ride from when I had my Daystar leveling kit on the truck. Just need to take it off road now to put it to the real test. And I am sure that it will work out just fine. Skyjacker makes a very good suspension system and it was well worth the wait all the way from December. I sure am glad I didn't go with a Procomp or Fabtech kit. The rear replacement springs sure do ride like a dream and they will only get better with time.
