Hi there,

If you got the IPD flyer, you should follow their instructions concerning how to diagnose front end clunks. I just replaced my tie rods and end links and the clunking is gone. Tomorrow it gets realigned. Not a real difficult job, especially if you get decent parts.

That's something you need to be careful about. At IPD you can just order parts, they will always be top shelf. At FCP, you need to know what you're ordering. Meyle, TRW, Moog are all supposedly good stuff. I had trouble with Hamburg Tech because they used goofy interference nuts for the end links which were a cheap PITA. That's the problem with being a DIY'er; without a wealth of experience, you can get burnt on purchasing less than satisfactory parts. Figure out what you need to replace, then get some help from the more experienced on the BB. Don't ask how I know.........Good luck
