Clunk from front left... its getting worse :(

[jwarren2k2]

Evening everyone,

There's been a couple of threads recently about a clunk coming from the front left area.

One solution was to change the ball joints... i have done this today and the clunk is still there. My biggest concern is that over the last ferw days its been getting worse.

Ive just been for a little drive to define when the clunk occurs.

It occurs if a go in a straight line at a fairly quick speed (40-50mph) then brake quite heavily... its really makes a bang and you can feel it thorugh the floor.

It also happened when i was going along the road and doing a bit of left right left right steering on the straight road... each time i turned to the right, it clunked. It also happens when i turn into roundabouts and some right bends, depending on my speed.


I have replaced the swivel hub and bearing, track rod end, lower arm ball joint, shock and spring on the left side.


Any input from anyone, or a solution that helped others with the same problem would be much appreciated as its getting worse and im starting to get quite concerned about it!


Many thanks,
James
