Squeaking/clunking noise from rear suspension

Squeaking/clunking noise from rear suspension
There's an audible squeaking/clunking noise emitting from the passenger rear wheel area when I go over crappy road surfaces such as cracks or speed bumps. It's not the shocks because they're still firm and were recently replaced. What else could it be? Wheel bearing?
Thanks for your input.

Could be sway bar bushings or control arm bushings.
I just swapped urethane bushings on to my rear sways and I think they may need to be greased because there's a small squeak coming from the rear over bumps.
I think my clunking is the control arm bushings. When I had the rear open for bearings a few weeks back, I noticed the bushings in the upper arms were pretty gummy.
