rear bumping noise

I recently bought a '93 Camry. A really nice fixer upper. The car has a lot bumping noise when driving on rough roads. It has new struts on the rear. Other than bad struts, what would cause this problem?

RE: rear bumping noise

bad strut mounts/boots.
loose sway bars
broken endlinks
worn bushings

The problem was the sway bar bushings. The rear bushings were worn but the left front was missing altogether. I'm relacing the end links while I'm under there.

Man, does it ever drive better. Thanks for the advice. Now I gotta get busy on the oil leaks. I guess the logical place to start would be the valve cover gasket.
