That could be a sign of a bad strut bearing.  I think you can also get a
clunk when swaybars are not aligned right, but i'm not sure.  maybe old
busings too.

	i guess if you wanted to replace everything, you would need to get

	-new control arms (not expensive really)
	-new busings (control arm)
	-ball joints
	-tie rods
	-strut bearings.

while your at it, you could throw in a set of konis :)

I may have missed something, but thats about it i think.
