After strut replacement, driver's side clunks 200 1981

On my '90, there was a metal ring spacer between the bottom of the strut insert and the strut. That spacer can stick to the old insert when you pull it out. If you don't notice it, you will leave it out when you install the new inserts and the result will be a clunk like the one you describe.

I hope this is not it. Doing struts is one of my least favorite jobs.
