The quadshock should not make any noticable difference in the compression of the body (when you push down on the car). If you were not having any compression/rebound issues (and it was just a noise you were after), then it sounds like you found the issue.

If you have funky rebound/compression, ensure the shock is bolted up at both ends and check for oil leaking down the body.

Good luck.

If you have high mileage stockers with Sportimes it may not come as a huge surprise.
