I had put OEM springs and I put new struts and I put an aftermarket strut mount and my car still rides rough on the rear. What is the problem? I had tried aftermarket struts too and they gave me a rough ride, but I had decided to use OEM springs and the car still rides rough. What could be the problem?

Does it make noise when you drive or is it just a rough ride? Here are the rear suspension components. I would use a flashlight to check the rubber bushings in the control and trailing rods. Please check out this guide:

Check out the images (below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem so we can see what's going on.
