Default Noise under the hood

So last night on my way home from work. I was on Harpers Road and its kinda bumpy and I started hearing this clanking type noise whenever I would hit a bump. I recently had sway bars and endlinks installed I was thinking maybe they were loose. As soon as i pull out of my apartment complex I hear it instantly when I go over a speed bump slow.

So today i pulled it in the hobby shop here at oceana, and put it on the lift.
Besides my AC compressor making noise if I cut the AC on, nothing else seemed to be loose at all what so ever. The suspension arms, exhuast sway bars, it all was tight. so I am at a loss of what it could be. it honestly sounds like something is loose but everything underneath seems fine.

Maybe a broken motor mount? I never heard it before the clutch/sways bars were installed. It is loowered from the previous owner . Am I finally just hearing more because of the stiffer sway bars or are the shocks shot?
Any ideas? If anyone is in the area I can take you for a ride and you can hear it if you like, Brian, or anyone close.
Thanks
