    Both sides, really? The clunking is only from the front left wheel.

    Think about it... it is linked to both side by the sway bar... if one side is bad, it will clunk.

    Check your steering system when you jack up one side with wheel attached... grab at 9 and 3 o'clock and rock it back and forth... if you feel the clunking, then your steering is also bad.

    Grabbing at 12 and 6 o'clock, if you got play there... you will also feel the clunking.
