Sounds squeaks from front suspension

Hi,
first post here...need help. I just changed my dead shocks to KONI FSDs on my GP here in Thailand and although the ride has improved drastically over the poor roads here, the front suspension set up now feels loose, has lots of squeak noises over uneven roads. On flat road everything perfect and feels solid.
Could it be the upper shock mount bushings?
Any suggestion would be great, as I only have BMW mechanics here and they are not that experienced with Minis yet...
many thanks
frank
