Default Rear suspension knock

iv seen many threads with a similar description, theres a clunk thats comes from the rear passenger side of the car, mine has been doing this for a while i just thought it was bad shocks, after i put Konis SA's, still same problem . this happens only when im going over bumps, like if the car had no springs, well not that harsh but its annoying.

Default Springs

I had the same problem. The rubber piece that is on the bottom of your coils are probably bad.
