Struts rattle

I just install some struts on the rear. The rear driver making some clunking noise. I thought the rear seat was not hook up right. I fixed it, but first came the squeek then the rattle, what the F**** is going on?

any one had their strut put in, let me know what I did wrong and fix the annoying noise.

Sounds like the nut on top of the strut isn't tight. It'll rattle like crazey if it isn't.

No sh*t, you are right. I did tried to turn it down, but it will not tight down when turn. this is the large center nut here.
