Noise coming from drivers side rear.

Ok, guys... Here we go again, I got another mystery noise..

Drivers side rear on bumby roads. the sound is kinda like sothing hitting a big flat panel. Also sounds kinda like a spring bouncing around in the pocket....

I have checked: the spring pocket, new pads and springs, doesn't budge when axle is loaded. Checked the bolts holding the new shocks, all tight to specs. Also the shocks on the trunk (it is a convertible) were shot and I replaced them, that didn't help..

Any Ideas? Is it possible that I got a bad KYB shock?? Again only happens on bumpy roads or speedbumps, don't hear it on nice smooth roads or highway.

Thanks
Troy Backus

You might want to check the sway bar end link bracket bolts.

yeah check the endlinks, something has to be loose or not set in place right..

not really common to have bad shocks, but it could happen...
