Default rear end thud?

I've had my new GT for a couple months now, and since day one, whenever I go over a decent sized bump, I hear a rapid fire thud noise.

Anyone else hear this?

Bump.....I'd like to know what the TSB involves also. For me the "thud" in the rear is worse than the one in the front - that I haven't taken care of yet.

Are you sure you just aren't hitting the bumpstops?

It was listed on on either here or allfordmustangs and said they have a TSB out for the rear shock. I'm planning on going to the dealer today or tom to look into it. I have a loud thud over big bumos too. I'll let you guys know what I come up with

Glad to hear someone else is experiancing this. I can hit a small raised bump and then it feels like a loud thump/bump. I will be interested in your findings as well - '07 GT/CS
