I replaced the rear struts on my 2006 LTD late last year as the old ones were leaking. I did not have any issues changing them.
I had a hollow clunk prior to the change and it had seemed to go away (or was wishful thinking) but has since returned with a vengeance.
It is possible that I did not tighten down a bolt or two fully, though I'd like to think this is not the case. This being said, including the rear struts, what could be causing a hollow clunking in the rear when going over bumps.
Also, when I tow, I do not believe I hear the clunk at much / at all. But then again, I don't drive the same while I have thousands of pounds pushing me either.
