    Have a clunk after brake change. Not sure what the issue is. I'm thinking of replacing the worn out parts since the car has 120+ on it. Other that the LCA's, sway bushings and tie rod endlinks...what should I replace?

    What I did was replace all 4 struts and mounts, both LCA's, the sway bar (With the 97-03 / 06+ Style), both inner and outer tie rods.

    The sway is good so no need to buy a new one. It is my wifes DD so there is not chance of performance happening, just stock replacement stuff.

    Maybe she hot rods it, GP is a race car after all. Whens the clunk happens can you get a general area it comes from and can you repeat the clunk by doing a certain thing like moving the wheel ect. If it wasn't there before you double checked everything you touched right?

    Clunk only happens when you are on the brakes over a bump with wheel turned right.........caliper has been taken off and inspected on the driver side where I think the sound is coming from. Will be taking apart the passenger side maybe tonight.

    I haven't checked the passenger side yet. The driver side is all good.
