A small update guys, They tried to removed the end links and clunking still there, They tried to tighten the shock absorber from the mount and sound is gone.
A little but not similar from before. So now help me decided to replace the shock or just live with it. If I am replacing the shock do I need to replace both rear? or if the quote is a little high I can go for coilovers. |

If it's quiet now and the strut isn't bad, I say leave it until you're ready for a new set all around. If it returns after tightening multiple times, I'd actually see if you can get new mounting studs pressed in before going all in on new struts. If one is damaged (Bent or even just fatigued threads) then things should come together just fine without replacing anything more expensive. |

This is probably not the solution but something to check. Put the car in neutral with the rear end of the car in the air and try to shake the axles and driveshaft to see if there is play. It could be a blown cv joint. Makes noise going over speed bumps in my car

Small update guys, clunking noise is gone. The spring is hitting to the shock and they tighten and put a spring sleeves to 100% eliminate the clunking sound. Save me some $$ to buy a new set of shock absorber or coilovers.

You can grab some stock off from people that swapped them for coils for cheap. Or you can grab some aftermarkets (like I did), I'm enjoying my KYB Excel-G Struts. Coilovers are a lot pricier, but gives you that aftermarket height and better performance. Generally harsher ride though. Pick your poison ~
