Default 2010 ls lexus with air - bump sound from trunk area

Good morning, so i have a bump in the trunk and figured it was a bad air shock. 2900$ So, my hubby is a master mechanic with Kubota. I had him replace it. Took him 5 hours but he is meticulous. Drove it and walla still have the bump in the trunk .. Definitely, from right rear. Oh this vehicle only has 55K on it. LOVE LOVE LOVE the ride amazing with the air shocks. Any suggestion? thank you

Dealer, probably one hour at their rate for a diagnose of the issue....way less that $2900$ !

Did anyone look in the spare tire area?

Well the only other easy thing you could check inside is the stereo amp that's under the panel that has the attaching brackets for the storage bags on the rh side, lift up the chrome hook retainers and pry up the plastic covers by the base of the hinges and remove the 2 10mm bolts and one clip in the centre.
The amp would only be loose if it was repaired or replaced at some point.

Other than that you would need to have someone look at the rear control arms/bushings/wheel bearings/rotors and brakes/rear sway bar and links. Your hubby should be able to look at those.

Yes, when hubby did the rr shock he said it all looked good under there had rotors n brakes done 1,000 miles ago. But, thank u for the input. He will check the amp per your instructions
