I have a 2020 gladiator sport max tow with a 4.5 inch skyjacker lift and 35's.
When I hit bumps at low speed I hear a clank noise. I have torqued all of the suspension components to spec, and layed underneath it in the snow looking for anything that is loose
I can't find anything.
Any thoughts?

Check the nuts welded in the frame that hold your skid plate on. Had the same problem, welds were broken and had to be replaced with locking nuts.

i may be really late to this party, but i had the same thing and ended up being combination of rear swaybar in a bind (ungreased and too tight) but mainly for me, it was the passenger rear upper control arm. The truck side, or female side, was a bit wide, so the control arm was grabbing only part...any way i added a slim stainless washer to each side and now moved freely and doesn't grab and clunk.
hoping that might help

My clunk when turning right was the shock. Tightened lower bolt and no more clunk. Easy check. Grab a hold of lower portion and try twisting. If it clunks you found it.
