Default race spring, now clunk sound

I just rolled my front fenders so I think I'm good in the front, but when I go over some bumps and when I back out of my driveway and the front wheels come off the curb I here a clunk sound in the back. What is that?

did you roll the fender's yourself? for me, my back was hitting the inner liner in the back. i don't think you're running into that issue though..cause it looks like you still got good clearance in the back.

Yeah I did it myself, but no I don't think that is the noise I'm hearing in the back.

Could this be the control arms?
