I have a 95 C2 w/ 97k miles, so I replaced all 4 struts recently and since then have noticed a low speed clunk sound going over low speed bumps. It's most evident when going over a series of bumps around 10-15mph regardless of coasting or on the gas. I tried removing the sway bar which helped but didnt elimiate the sound. I did notice one of the toe links had a torn boot but when I yanked around the rear tire I didnt notice much play, I did however order replacements so I'm hoping that will fix the sound. Could it be the rear strut mounts or engine mounts though? I can't find replacement strut mounts for the rear, do these pretty much last forever?
Thanks in advance-

The first to go is usually the toe links, lowest and furthest back, but you really should have all of them checked by a pro
