hey got an issue lately when I drive...
I go over an unevened surface or bump or turn left or right and hear a loud clunking sound

Does anyone know what would be the cause of this sound???

Did you checked your sway bar bushes lately?

Is there anyway of checking that without jacking the car up?

Stick your arm through the mags and shake sway bar link in all directions. Or lay on back and do it from under front of car. Just changed mine easy as and I kept the wheels on.

Best to jack front end up and see if the swaybar slides left and right, if it does the bushes are cooked.

USE AXLE STANDS.
