Default Sway Bar Clunk

Need help guy, this clunking is making me go nuts.

I had my BC coils and F sport sway bars installed back to back and cant tell which is causing the noise. Im pretty sure its the sway but im not quite sure. I ordered new f sport bushings to see if it would help but nothing.

Could someone help me with this, im not so mechanically inclined

The inside of the D bushings need to be greased.

Get under the car and see what is banging into what before you do anything.
