make sure the shock is tightened up at very top where it bolts to the car also double check all bolts etc that were removed and replaced when changing the suspension.

the exact same thing happened to my mate when he put sleeves in his civic...it went clonk over bumps, he checked the bolts and a couple were not as tight as they should have been.

did you get new bump stops or leave the old ones in there?

i am still to put my new suspension on my car, but i was told by the guys to also buy new bump stops. whether its them or not i dont know, but worth a try.

just get them to look at what the noise is as they did the job...
