Front-end Clunk?? 200

1981 front-end clunk. Sometimes when I hit little bumps in the road or enter a driveway, I get a clunk from the front end. I put the front wheels on blocks and had my daughter turn the steering wheel back and forth slightly while I inspected everything under the front end. I could hear the clunk, but I couldn't see anything moving that would cause the sound. Do these sounds sometimes come from inside the steering box? It seems to be coming from that area. Also, with a pry bar, I could get some up and down movement out of the tie rod ends at both wheels.
