I just got back form a great weekend of camping (driving over bumpy roads) and know I'm hearing a klunking sound when I turn right and go over a bump and when I stop I can sometimes hear it. I've pushed down on the back shock to see if that was it but it didn't do it. The car had quit a bit of weight in the back of it and it is lowered with ST springs. ne of you guys have a clue as to what it could be???

my car is also lowered with ST springs and has a clunk in the back end when i go over big bumps, i think its because the springs didn't seem to sit in the rubber mounts on the shock 100% when i put them on...which i beleive is also why it didn't lower the rear a whole lot..

Mine sat fine in the rubber mounts and I've been driving problem free on them for 5 months now. On stock struts to. The reason I don't think they lower as much on the back is that there is little weight pushing Down on them.

hmm thats odd that yours sat fine in the mount and mine didn't, i fiddled with them for a bit, but couldn't seem to get them to sit perfect and have everything line up. i also had my car on the hoist the other day and noticed if i twist the springs all the way up into the upper mount it raises the car abit, and if i twist them all the way down to sit perfect in the lower mount the car lowers slightly...i think i may take the struts back off sometime to look further into it, since the alignment i got done was **** anyways
