clunking over bumps

ok i have changed all 4 struts on my 1999 toyota corolla. tokico blues to be exact. i left everything else stock. i added on my hotchkis sway bars front and rear. the change is veryy noticeable but i have a problem going over bumps. i speed a lot but i am careful with the bumps. every time i go over a bump, i hear loud clunking as if something hits something else as i go over the bumps. like i said, my struts are brand new but coilovers and strut mounts and sway bar links are still stock, got 139,000 miles on it. need advice on what it could be
im thinking it could be my rack and pinion (noticed a leak but it isnt that serious), or it could be that the struts weren't put right or maybe i need new coils or strut mounts. help!! thanks

How are your sway bar endlinks?

My hotchkiss sway bars tend to go though them pretty fast.

Did you read any of my responses to your other thread (which is basically the same thread as this one)?
