I've got the clunks. When I round a corner the new OME heavy suspension is clunking in the rear. I used the OME bushings and shackles. What is the remedy for the clunks. I havent retorqued since install, could that be the issue?

did you use greasable shackles? Mine did the same new. i put a few squirts of grease in mine a couple of times and once the suspension settled it went away. It lasted a week or 2 and about 200 miles
Did you hook up your factory sway bars? Mine have clunked for years .I just don't pay attention anymore .
Are the teflon pads between the leafs nice and greased?
Out of curiosity, have you checked to make sure the sleeve inserts in the spring eyes aren't sliding?
If it is new most likely this is the problem.
Have a look at this thread and see if it could be the issue. It was for me.

How do I check to see if there sliding is it visible without pulling the spring off?
Rock Doc did you end up putting the sleaves in a vice to make them stop shifting?
