Default Helppp!!! scawy noise :/

So the other night driving home i hit something, not sure if it was a rock or what.(only with the right rear tire)
anyway it left a ball/ bump on my right rear tire(next to my wheel)
and i'm thinking something from the hard hit messed up my suspension, cause every time i hit a bump or a pot hole or anything that is not flat i hear a loud thump or noise coming from the right rear suspension.

(checked it out but nothing was loose/broken)
anyone know what it could be?!?!?1

thanks.

Did you test out the compression/rebound of that shock by pushing up and down on the back end? A blown shock can make a lot of noise, you may not be able to reproduce that noise without actually driving however.

Also check out the trailing arm bushing. A good chance yours was already in bad shape, might have been torn almost all the way through before. Check all the bushings on that corner.
