Default lca's? sway bar?

when going in and out of my driveway or anywhere i hear a crunching sound coming from the rear end of my car. greased the lca's.. still making the noise.. the sway bar loose? any suggestions, i already made a dealership appointment for free hot dogs and popcorn, but i would prefer to cancel if i can fix this myself. anyone have any ideas?

Did you use factory bolts or new ones?
What did you torq the bolts to?
Did you grease the sway bar bushings?
Did you torq the bolts with the suspension loaded or unloaded?

you do give much info so its hard to tell what could be wrong.....

i wouldnt go to FORD about aftermarket suspension that they didnt install.....the shop should be the one taking care of it. Also just because the car was on a lift doesnt indicate if the suspension was loaded or not.
