Clunking front suspension.

So many places to look.. My 2009 LT2 has 196,000 miles and I love it. Take really good care of it too. So when I bought it, it had 117,000. The car rattled replaced lower control arms, swaybar bushings, shocks, wheel hubs, rotors, steering column ujoints, still clunks. This weekend im going to replace the swaybar links. I think i missed those. Will let you all know.
my lower control arms were so worn out, the car would pull to the right when accelerating and left during deceleration. Ive spent thousands more on this car than i will ever recoup. Lower rear springs and rear swaybar, performance exhaust and more.. Love my car.

Welcome Scott!

I moved your post to it's own new thread.

Depending on when your clunk happens, the links are a good bet, be sure to get the "10 inch" links not the "12 inch". The parts books are wrong the crossover part number is K750012.

Welcome to the site, have a look at the swaybar bushings, upper strut bearing plates.
