Espelir rear springs and clunking on bumps
Well, I installed my Espelir lowering springs long time ago and ever since, there has been a clunk (REAR) when I dips in the road... Now I know that all my BOLTS ARE TORQUED because I have checked already and the sway bar is not hitting the shock because it is positioned normally. Is anyone having this sort of problem after lowering spring install? I am stumped..the only thing I can think of is that the springs are too short and it is just bouncing around on the shocks...or my shocks are too worn out. Anyone have any ideas or experiences?

Are there rubber sleeves on some of the coils? Some springs come with this to prevent that clunk.
I had a similar sound in the past with a swift/bilstein setup. I believe it was because the mechanic tightened up all the bolts while the car was still in the air. He was supposed to put pressure on the suspension (lower the car from the lift) before tightening the suspension bolts.

Check your bushes. If they're good it could be spring coil bind whenever you go over a dip. I honestly can't recall if I was getting a clunking noise when I had Espelirs fitted, they were a really nice spring.
