We lowered my sons 05 RT with an Eibach kit a few months ago. So far we have had to replace the DS rear shock due to a clunking, and even had to put the factory upper bracket on the second Eibach shock to finally quiet it down. He's still complaining about a groaning noise from the rear of the car. We've even had all the Eibach rear sway bar bushings re-lubed and the groaning is still there. My tech at Dodge says if he wants it quiet put it back to stock, I tell him just to turn the radio up louder, anyone got any ideas?

You could have bush bind. When you changed the springs did you tighten all the components up while it was on a four post lift or if you it in your garage while it was under load.
The proper procedure should be to leave the bolts loose and then give it a short slow drive around the block or parking lot and then tighten everthing up with load on the car.
