Again just trying to help, Mark

Wish you lived close I would help, instead of just armchair quarterback...

I had the same issue and I tested the balljoints as well without any movement. It wasn't until I replaced the balljoints did the clunk go away. I'm thinking that there was just enough play in them to cause the clunk but not enough for me to see it four feet away when using the pry-bar to test them.
