Default need help for my JICs

dear JIC owners,
after i installed my JIC flt-a2, i hear some clunking noises from the rear right corner whenever i go over some bumpy roads.
the mechanic tried switching the 2 rear coilovers to test where the noises were coming from and to see if the noises will change sides....noises have reduced but it's still there at the rear right corner
any idea where the noises are coming from?

the mechanic said it might be the sway bar that produced the noises becoz i have lowered the car....

do you have the upper rubber mounts for the springs? I had some squeaking noises as well before i got the rubber spring perches in there.

The clunking sound is inherit in the design of the JICs, and even the Teins from what I understand. I initially didn't have the upper rubber spring mount, but once I received and installed it, the sound diminished, but was still there.

i have the rubber pieces installed with the springs
only the rear right corner has this noise

if the noise is inherit in the JIC or Tein i should have got the HKS Hipermax II/Pro coilovers then....i had that on me IS300 and it was very quiet.
