check the strut tower brace. . . if it isnt tightened down all the way it will clunk when you throw it into reverse

did you had a down pipe install lately? sound like the down pipe hitting the front sway bar. i used to had that too when putting on reverse and hearing that clunking sound.

Thanks... Funny thing was the strut tower brace. i painted them and never really tighten them really tight.. when you mention stb i seen the paint was wearing right where the washers are. Just Tighten them up at lunch and No more Clunk.. Thank you Whitescarlo


Looking at Puchasing Down Pip Soon.. After winter thx for the heads up on that ill think of something
