i just got a clunking noise fixed in mine on thursday, it also was on front left. It did it whenever i went up a curb into my driveway or pulling into work, was embarrassing watching all the guys look at me like wtf his cars gonna fall apart lol, i ended up getting engine mounts done, control arms, and zbar bushes replaced, quiet as a mouse now, they told me the noise i was getting on curbs was the z-bar, well i believe them as its perfect now, maybe have yours looked at

Hi VT_2000
I know this is an old thread but I was just wondering if you ever found and fixed the clunking noise?

thanks
