Need help

I need help from anyone who has Icon suspension or any other suspension and experiencing the same sounds i am.
Basically, i installed Icon Extended travel coil overs up front with LR UCA and Metal Tech Long Travel Kit in the rear.
Once the suspension was installed, everything was perfect within days of installation i went wheeling with couple of the guys, where i was told that my Bolt joint on UCA is installed wrong. So i took my truck back to fix the ball joint issue. After it was fixed i start noticing squeaky sound up front only when i go over speed bumps. I think we figure it out that it is UCA, any other possibility please let me know.
But my biggest issue is i also noticed squeaky dry noise in the rear and metal clank. So the squeaky dry noise in the rear we think is my shocks when they get compress over speed bumps. Here is the video

My rear coils is compressed up top and spread out at the bottom, can they make metal clunk noise when i go over speed bumps kind quick?
Here is the coils:

This issue with LR UCAs has come up before. I think it often happens when the bolt isn't greased properly, so you can either remove the bolt, grease it, and put it back in to see if that solves it, or you can hit it with some dry lubricant every so often. Sorry, can't help you with the rest as I don't have any experience with the Metal Tech LT stuff. Have you tried contacting them about the noise in the rear? Since they specifically designed the kit they might have run into it before or at least know where to start troubleshooting it.
 
I spoke with LT at Metal Tech, he said he will contact Icons because he never heard of a noise like that, I will also send him the video today so they can see what it is. Thanks for your input.
 
Ok, so I spoke with LT from MT and Icon is willing to service my shocks. I'll send it and see what they come up with, but now I have to run my stock shocks with extended coils, I wonder how it will feel.
