Knocking in rear of 2002 Acura EL	Sign In

I have a 2002 Acura EL 1.7L. with 225,000kms. that makes knocking noises when going over any kind of bumps. I replaced the struts but the noise is still there. I checked to make sure spare was tight as well. but I'm still not sure where the knocking is originating. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Something is loose and it just needs to be inspected a little closer. Could be stabilizer bar, exhaust system, worn steering components , etc.

Could it be ball joints or suspension?

Sure, it could be any number of things. Inspecting it on a lift is the only way you are going to find out
