Front end goes "CLUNK" over bumps 850 1997

posted by  someone claiming to be Nathan Valles on  Sun Nov 11 15:09 CST 2001 [RELATED]

I recently started hearing a CLUNK when I run over bumps. (72k miles) It's only when I run over a bump with the right front suspension that I hear it. It started about a week ago and it seems to be getting worse. Handling and ride quality seems to be unaffected so far. Occasionally it does seem pull a little to the left, but that might just be my imagination. I haven't been able to climb under the car yet and look around, (It's raining and I don't have a garage) but any ideas or things to look for would be appreciated.

Any suggestions. I admit that I am looking for a reason to replace the stock struts with Bilsteins from IPD, but I would hate to do it and find out that it didn't solve the problem. Any other suggestions on things to replace?
