Default popping from rear end???

had the bilstein sport shocks installed with eiboc springs, now there is a "pop" that comes from the rear end when i turn or hit certain bumps. any ideas. p.s-------- i have had the wheels off to look for something loose, but cant find anything obvious.same with inside the trunk. every aftermarket part i have tried on my gs has had less than satisfactory results. anyone else?

Have you checked control arm number '2' was tight? How about the sway bar mounts?

I have had two spring/shock setups and on certain driveways it did make a popping noise.....I came to find out it was the springs shifting on a uneven surface...my two spring/shock setups were tein s tech with kyb and bilstein sport with tanabe springs...they both made a popping noise....when I went to coilovers that noise stopped..
