Default Clunk from rear-end, suspension? AP2

Hey guys,

I have my Bilstein PSS9's put on a few months ago. Everything was fine, but now for some reason there is a clunk from the rear end over large bumps.

I am positive it is not a rubbing issue.

It sounds like maybe the shocks are rubbing against a rubber end or something. Hard to explain... only happens over larger bumps on the road (but I can get it to happen almost any bump).

Does anyone have any idea what this could be? Is it possible the shocks aren't torqued down correctly?

Many thanks!

Checked that today - it is down snug.

Called Bilstein as well and they said if the shock was blown there would be oil all over the place.

Hmrmph.
