No, my car is a '90 740 (I wish it were a V90!).

The rubber bushings on the swaybar links are solid, not like tieorod ends. When I installed them, I just tightened them up by feel. I can see that the bushings have settled in in a less than perfectly straight fashion, meaning that they have squished a bit so that they are not perfectly flat.

Installing them didn't introduce any noise at the time, but I'm wondering if a bit of wear may have introduced the clunk (having wasted $60 and most of a Saturday, I know for a fact the problem isn't worn ball joints).
