Hello All, I've been monitoring this forum and this particular subject for quite a while and appreciate all the advice. I still have a fairly heavy clunk in the front end, largely coming from the right side despite having replaced the following parts: LCA bushings, stabilizer bar bushings, links, struts, and CV axle, all to no avail. I just replaced the intermediary steering shaft thinking it was possible that it was faulty, no luck plus it didn't help the constant rattle coming from the steering wheel area. I've also checked all the motor/transmission mounts, I've had the car checked by several mechanics thinking i was missing the obvious and they've found nothing. The noise is very noticeable at lower speeds on any kind of rough surface and I assume is drowned out by road noise at higher speeds. If there is anything else anyone can suggest trying I'd be grateful, I enjoy the car but because we live in an area where many of the roads are of brick pavers, the noise is becoming mind numbing. Thank you.

 

I don’t see ball joints on your replacement list, I’ve had them wear out after just 20,000 miles.
recheck the torque on the axle nut…. 155 ft/lbs hub mount bolts 85 ft/ lbs, calliper bracket 85 ft/lbs
sometimes it the easy stuff that can get missed! Rear LCA bushing bolt, 74 ft/lbs then tighten another 180 degrees.
how old are strut mounts ? Did the strut nuts get tightened correctly?

 

You've probably already been through the thread that I have a link in my signature.

 

You might want to check steering shaft pinch bolt…,I looked for rattle for 2 years…replaced everything new in front end….still rattled….then had wife rotate steering wheel back and forth while had my head by peddles….while trying to change my position, I noticed the lower steering shaft slide on the splines….checked pinch bolt….was tight….tightened it some more and no more rattles
