Hey all,

I'm still hearing a lot of clunks/thuds in the rear of the car particularly going 20-40 mph over bumps/smaller potholes/man-hole covers, etc. I had all my struts/shocks replaced with the Bilstein HDs and the ride is much firmer but I'm still hearing the noises. I just figured that the thuds/clunks were coming from my rear shocks because they were shot but I guess not. From the responses of one of my previous posts I had the front driver-side control-arm bushing and bracket replaced and the gland nuts checked/tightened which seemed to alleviate the front from clunking. I don't know if spacer shims were installed for the front. For the rear, the rear sway bar links/bushings are all new from IPD installed with the swaybars so they shouldn't be a problem. What's my next step to stop these annoyances?? The ride feels tight but the noises certainly don't help!!

Thanks in advance!!!
-Adam
