Default knocking sound in back when making left turns

Ok here is the deal, just recently I had LCA brakcets welded on the Moser rear and then tubular adjustable LCA put on. Everything seemed fine.
Went to the track, and that night on the way home I heard a knocking sound from the back, when went over bumps so I thought.
So put the car up, made sure everything was tight, one of the adjustable bolts was loose on the driver side Adj LCA, so I tightened it up. Seemed like the knocking sound went away. Also it seemed the noise happened when I had a small child in the back seat, 40lbs or so.

Anyway, it started doing it again yesterday when I had him in the car and only when making left turns.

I have the car up now, nothing is loose, shocks and springs are fine. Not sure what can be causing this noise.

In the back I have the SAM strano lowering springs, Koni adj shocks, adj panhard rod, adju LCA, LCA brackets, moser 12 bolt

Anyone experience this problem before???

Thanks

Sam

I have the problem, Im almost positive its just bad bushings for my LCA, but you have some more extensive mods done, but might wanna check that out.

Hello, my thought is that you have a bad bushing either in the lca's or your panhard bar. Also check your torque arm bolts they tend to loosen up on aftermarket rears. If you want to give me a call we can try to help you out with your problem.
