cusco 2 squisssh sound?

i have a problem. I bought a cusco 2 suspension, it was in really good condition. However, after installing the suspension, everytime i go over a bump. There's a squesshing noise coming from the rear shox. I comes only from the rear driver side shox.

Is there anyway to find out for sure whats wrong with it? I check and there didn't seem to have any oil leaks on it.

If its like hissing noise, its normal. Oil/gas passing though the valve.

what i meant is it's louder than the other 3 shoxs on the car. I sat on the back and the hissing sound only comes from one side. Yes, it's a really loud hissing sound.

I rather have the squishing noise than the thumping right rear sound I have had forever on my Cusco2s. Rags stuffed into the top tower was the only way to dampen the noises. Otherwise the ride quality is good once you get the settings dialed in to your tastes.
