Strange noise

Just replaced my swaybar with an Alta, since the installation which I did myself, there has been a knocking sound coming from the rear. Put the car up on stands found a exhaust Bracket that was broken, had it welded and placed it back on the car alas the noise continues only when in motion though. Any ideas?

Hiya Mendo,
Can you post up pics of your install? Also did you reuse your OEM endlinks? I have seen where the links are not tightened all the way and they make a bit of noise.
