High pitched thumping

Hey I just changed the endlink on the rear drivers side of my 2000 TL and am still getting a high pitched thumping, as if something is loose whenever I go over a bump (either while going straight or turning, doesnt matter).

I guess I need to rip apart my back seat to get at the rear strut and take a look but before I do, are there any suggestions? About 10,000 miles ago I replaced all 4 struts and springs with Eibachs and lowered it

did you use MOOG brand, those tighten better than the OE ones

always ck your recent work to be sure its ok
Top of strut bolts and its center nut accessed by removing seat back

yeah i used moog, only one side because I was too lazy to replace the other since my compressor cant handle my cut off tool and it took forever to cut off the 2 bolts to put in the end link.

it wasnt aligned when it got lowered cuz the dude said there wasnt enough change in ride height to warrant it, which i found odd. i didnt pursue it further because the ride seemed fine, and that was about 10,000 miles ago.

today ill probably take a look at the sway bar bushings
