Default Loud Thump

When ever I hit mid-sized bumps on the road in my 86 4000csq, I hear this loud thump coming from the rear. Sometimes its loud enough to scare the shi*t out of me. Anybody who rides with me will notice the same thing and they usually think my suspension is bottoming out, but the bumps arent big enough. Is this a problem. It made these sounds more frequently before I replaced the struts, it dosent do it as often now.

Exhaust hitting something most likely culprit.

Default agreed...

could also be rear control arm bushings. then the noise would be coming from under the seat in the rear.
