    I have been having this problem for a while and I can't find any thing on here about the sound coming from the front. Well anyway it's every time I turn or hit a bump i get this weird sound coming from the front I can't exactly tell which side because it always seems to happen when I'm not paying attention to it but any ideas what's wrong? I was thinking sway bar but I want other peoples thoughts too

    The links might be shot, those would be a good bet if they have never been replaced.

    Hmm, mine has been clunking on turning on the passenger side front for a while now, just havent had time to check it out. Ive replaced LCAs, Tie-Rod Ends, Swaybar Endlinks, Motormounts, and it still does it. I too am interested if its the strut mount. How dows one know that its bad? Ive replaced the struts 15k miles ago but didnt replace the top plate.
