Default Wheel well Knocking

I need some major help! Ok, so here is the scenerio..... Hotchkis f and r sways, tein s-techs, spc alignment kits on the suspension stock struts (all installed less than 1k miles ago).... couple days ago, heard a crazy-loud knocking noise when I went over speed bump(driver side front and rear)..... now whenever I go over anything other than level (i.e. road reflectors) , the wheel has a loud knocking noise as though something is loose.... I have checked all the bolts for tightness on the suspension, and there is no fluid on the strut, wtf could this be from? any ideas? I really do not want to have the car in the mechanics.....

I did not get any love on this post, but here is what it was...

Turns out that it was the top strut nut that was loose.... I was like wtf.... and just fixed it myself....

Spending all day drinking budwisers - 20 dollars. Finding out it was a small thing and not needing to replace struts - "priceless"
