Banging from rear passenger when turning hard

After I hit this huge pothole on my right rear passenger I have noticed that If I make a hard left turn there are thumps and clanks coming from that side. I thought I blew a shock so I replaced all of mines with tokicos in addition to my H&R's.. I still get that thud sound though. I hear people mentioning something about a bump stop? Could this be be it or is it something else? Please help!!!

Try checking the nuts/bolts from the power steering bracket. I don't know about the 2001, but my 2k was making some noise for a while after doing some drifting and hard turning. I found that the bolts from the bracket were hiting the bracket at the top of the right spring. The noise went away latter on after everything settled back. If you think this might be your problem, read the tsb. I don't know if its this or not, but mabey it will help. good luck.
