Default Loud clunking over bumps rear offside

Need some help trying to locate loud clunk on rear suspension.
My tourer has had completely new rear suspension, subframe, upper and lower arms, coil springs, dampers, anti roll bar bushes and links, brake back plates, handbrake shoes and springs.
The problem I have now is a loud knock on the offside when going over bad roads. I have had everything off this morning and checked for any signs of damage to arms or bushes etc but can find nothing. Mot passed 2 weeks ago with no problems, only thing tester noticed was that the rear bushes on the front suspension were worn and suggested getting them replaced.
My question is can the noise from the front worn bushes transmit through the car and give a false impression that the problem is at the rear. Only other thing would be the rear trailing arm bushes at the toe in brackets possibly past their best.
Anybody else had experience of changing this Bush or am I barking up the wrong tree.
Any help greatly appreciated

Mark
