mine did that too. sounds like it's from the rear, but it actually turned out to be the CV joint and the rack&pinion. If it makes noise in a turn it's NOT the back *usually!*

Bear -
Check your spare and give it an extra click with that tensioning gizmo - that was my rear clunk!

I had the same clunk too. Sounded like it was from the rear. Turned out to be my sway bar links up front. I replaced the both, problem gone!
