I have this popping sound coming from the right rear wheel area. It happens when ever the right rear wheel (Only) passes over a pot hole or a speed bump. The car has new shocks and I've checked all bushings in the panhard, LCA, torque arm mounts, lugnuts, and bolts. The fluid is full in the differential so I'm now at a loss to figure out what is causing this?

Does your car have rear struts? If so, check for a cracked or broken coil spring.

Let me know.
