So I have had this problem for awhile (about 4 months). When I drive even on a slightly dipped road it makes a noise like something is in the trunk bouncing around. it doesnt make this noise on highway speeds. If your saying its the Shocks.. its not.. cuz Jimmy installed Koni Yellows a week ago. Jimmy said it might be the endlink bushing but he said they are good.. so I dont know what it is....

Suggestions? and yes I did take everything out of the trunk... tire.. tool tray.. jack.. etc..

A few things to check for. 1. Sway bar links that are worn out, they have to un-loaded (jacked up) to check. 2. Broken Springs, they break mostly on the bottom coil. 3. Rear control arm/trailing arm bushings worn out.
