Ah, was wondering if that was going to be it Peter. It'll be the link pins! I, and a few other members, had that issues with the Wholesale Suspension rear link pins. Solution was to grind the step on the washer down about half a mm, clunk disappears then.

Have a read through this page of the thread:

Peter you have suspension clunking, you drive on rough roads... Get that sorted. That's potentially an accident waiting to happen

Thanks Dan....completely forgot about that thread. I doubt Fraud would have known to shave the washer (and my fault for not telling them). But still doesn't explain front clunk? (Unless whiteline also uses the same z type pin design with a washer? Cant remember what was in the packaging lol).

And yeah Matt....im not always on rough roads, its on sections of road where there might be a slight dip or imperfection I.e. sections of wanneroo road or some areas on the street near tuart hill/nollamara, etc. You just hear a quick clunk type noise (usually at front left or rear left/right). Theres extra harshnesss...but rhat might be some of the superpro bushes that has been done?

I was hoping the guru on here could spare some time one weekend...but I may have to come up with some coins and get WA Suspensions to have a look...and that wont be cheap lol maybe after I get tax back ;)

Surely Fraud and Wheels World Ozzy Park wouldn't be reckless enough for me to drive it if it was that dangerous? At least I saw the WW guy drive my car around the block a couple times - cause testing that the allignment was good (and he seemed proud of it and said "I think you'll like it now" which I do lol).

Sorry for long post peeps!

Yeah worth a shot I suppose (only $28 for inspection I think).

Already had Pedders Joondalup guy look at it (Domonic I think his name is)...but ill try and replicate the noises on streets near the store, and hopefully they happen when I take him for a test drive

Cheers!
