Default is this normal? (a sound)HELP!!!!!please

hey. my 2000 eclipse gt (5speed) is making a thump noise is the back of the car when i hit little bumps or rool over speed bumps. it sounds like a metal hitting on metal. its not the jack, tire, the plastic thing in the behind the back seat or the cd changer. does any one have any clue what this is?
Seth.
