Rear suspension noise when starting from a stop?

Hi everyone! I am having a little suspension noise from the driver's side rear when I start moving from a stop. It is a slight groan/squeak as the weight transitions in the car. I can only hear it when starting from a stop, and not on the road. For the life of me, I cannot figure out what is causing it.

Currently have FA 500s, RE RSMs, AKG RTABS, and TC Kline 600lb rear springs.

I *think* it may be bushing related. Problem is, I have no idea which bushing....

I checked rear sway bar mounts and verified those are tight. Shock mounts are tight and I just replaced the rubber bushings with new per RE install specs (before swapping, I did tighten the old ones down too much which result in more noise, but the noise overall wasn't fixed with the new rubber). Rear shocks don't seem blown, and the noise existed before I installed the new TCK springs.

Anyone else have this issue and was able to rectify it?
