Well...

The 5 door has a problem...

Its been a problem for a while now, that when i go over bumpers, there's a knocking coming from the back.

I thought it was shockers, and so Replaced them (Second hand from here), and at the same time lowered her 60.

The knocking is still there, but more frequent.

Over any bump in the slightest.

I thought it was the exhaust, but when i get under the car it doesn't seem to be that, though i could be wrong.

It seems like it comes from one side one time, and the other side another time, but i'm really not sure where to go with this..

Any ideas?

Cheers guys

Exhaust hitting the rear beam? You wont be able to tell when the back's jacked up because it un loads the beam and pulls it away from the body, common problem when dropped 60mm.. More of donk noise?

do you have and after market back box on it?

If you do then check to see if the side of the box is not hitting on were the shock is bolted to the rear beam when i had a magnex oval back box it hit on there just had to pull the box over with cable ties so that it didnt hit,
