Default Spring noise

Anyone know of a fix for noisy springs? I have H&R springs with HD shocks. When going over potholes,the spring unloads, and when the spring returns, the top "sleeper" coils hit together, making a clanking noise. Is there some type of tubing you can slip over the spring to help deaden this noise? I seem to recall a thread about cable-tying the perches to the springs, but couldn't find it.

Try calling Johnson Alignment in Torrance, CA. He did my install and I am super sensitive to noises and have had none. How long have you been using them before hearing the noise?
