things for you to check...

-if rear equiped sway bar..check bushings and or links for dryrotting/missing. they can clunk over bumps.

-bad strut and or bad strut mount (strut mount i believe is just a bushing back there.

more then likely you will need another set of rear struts.

Exhaust sounds likely.

Is it stock or aftermarket?
