ok, i took off my air ride and put all stock suspension back on.
i couldn't get the half of end links off the struts i got at the junkyard, so i left them i and drove a couple days w/o them.

yesterday i got around to putting them back on and tight.

Now i have a clunking sound from the rear when i hit bumps. if u bounce the car from the rear i don't get a sound, but if i rock the car from the side i get the clunking noise from the rear. Sounds like metal hitting metal.

i was told to check my rear bearings, which i will do tomorrow.

anyone know what it would be off the bat?

There's been alot of talk about this type of noise being related to rear sway bar bushings on the chassis. My car makes the same noise when hitting bumps. They're only a couple bucks and they shouldn't be too hard to replace. I'll be replacing mine when I get the time.
