So I put on some Fortune Auto coilovers about 3 weeks ago. Ever since then, after I drive my car for 3-4 minutes I start to hear a clunking noise come from the rear right side whenever I go over bumps. I re- torqued down all of the bolts and tightened up the preload and the sound still persists. Also whenever I take a sharp corner at a moderate speed with my shimmed vlsd it makes the clunking noise throughout the whole turn (clunkclunkclunk) it's definitly not the diff making the noise because this problem started as soon as I put on the coils. I thought it might be the coilover settling but now it's been 3 weeks. Any advice would be appreciated thanks guys!

Did you have the suspension realigned yet?

Check the bolt on the top hat of the coilover. Sometimes they get loose and clunks over bumps.

Loosen the top nut to the top hat and re do it.
