We got it up on his four post lift and sure enough when we started to bounce it up and down I could see the bolts shifting on the rear end struts. I now remember not torquing them down as I was thinking about swapping out rear ends and didn't want to fight them later. We spent 20 minutes going over every bolt on the suspension and motor/trans mounts, these seem to be the only ones I left loose.
It's good to have the clunk gone I bet !
Do you mean the rear shock mounts? I'm confused by what you mean when you use the word struts
