There is this hard clunk about 85% of the time when i come to a rolling stop. Then its there when i take off slowly from a standstill, and sometimes when i go over speed bumps you can feel the same thing. Ive posted this before and so have other people but there was never a real solution for it, and it seems this happens to alot of people after they lower their vehicle. I have new poly bushings in my TC rods and my endlinks of my sways. any help would be greatly appreciated!! thanks

check the bolt from the tension rod to the lower control arm, there are 2 of them, 16mm ish if i recall. if those bolts are lose they will make noises, also check the bolt on the other side of the tension rod, it's a long one 18mm ish, it bolts onto the chassis.

if all else fails, the lower control arm ball joint has no more grease, replace it.
