Had Pedders installed, and I'm hearing a fair amount of clunking. Everything's aligned. Rides good, but the clunking is present.

What should I look for to try and resolve this?

Make sure the top strut bolts are tight and everything that was touched. I have pedders and have zero noise.

Coilovers or aftermarket shocks/struts? Seems like the sound is coming from the rears. Maybe tie rods?

Just as I assumed, the end links were loose on the passenger side. Tightened everything down, and everything is good.

For anyone who wants to try them out. Ride is nice and firm, and no more bottoming out when going over bumps on the highway. Went from lowered FE3/BMR 1.4 to these with the BMR 1.4.

That would be a nice change, as I think my rear is bottoming out while hitting larger solid bumps.

There's a bump on a highway that I would go to, and will always bottom out, and then the rebound after is HORRIBLE. Went over it with the new suspension and didn't have any issues. 500$ shipped is a great value.
