Uh Oh. What did I do wrong installing Koni FSDs?

Just finished replacing to stock shocks on my '02 Cooper with Koni FSDs. Now there's a rattling noise from the rear at every bump. I haven't taken anything apart yet, but I wonder if any of you have suggestions on what to check first. Thanks.

Okay, answering my own post... Turned out the top nuts on the rear shock assemblies weren't as tight as they should have been.

Don't feel bad seen several customers do the same thing.
