Any ideas.
I think the original shock fault was over any bump, the shocks made noise.

All shocks make some noise if the rebound rate of the shock is faster than the speed of the changing road surface, i.e. the suspension returns to normal length whilst in "mid air" over the hole etc...

Also, if it a LARGE speed hump then you may well be hearing the noise of the tyre coming off the edge of the hump and hitting the road again, like dropping off a curb at speed king of thing. maybe.
