Clunking in the rear?
 
I just finally installed my Leaf pack from my 4.5" RC lift. I had the AAL for probably 6 months and never had any noises and now every time I go over a nice dip or bump, I get a clunk noise from the rear....sounds like its from the right rear.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Might be the bushings on your upper shock mounts, how old are your shocks?

did you put extended shackles on with your lift? When i put extended shackles on mine, i had some rubbing going on with my exhaust which would yell at me everytime i would hit a good size hole

double check the u bolts make sure there tight when you put new ones on they can come loose.
