    Default maybe the struts?

    hi all, at work so i dont have time 2 check through all the threads but ie just got a clunk in my front end when i go over certain bumps, and is worse if im turning a corner and go over a bump. just had the strut link bushes replaced so it cant be them. any ideas?

    If the nuts on the link pins are too loose they will still clunk. The fact that it is worse when cornering makes me think the link pins and bushes are still the problem. Was it doing this before you had them done or just since?
