Default 1996 grand cherokee

just purchased grand cherokee and while driving it has a side to side sway inthe rear, there is also a slight clunking noise, almost feels like the rear end is moving around. I have replaced all 4 shocks checked lugs and air pressure. Any ideas of what to look for? Thanks

Check the rear track bar bolts and see if they are tight, also check the bushings for wear. Autozone sells polyurethane rear track bar bushings for less than 20 bucks. My 95 ZJ felt the same way when I bought it, the rear track bar was loose at the frame end, tightening the bolt fixed the problem, I replaced the bushings anyway.
