Hey,
I have a clunk in my front end that happens when I turn sometimes, and also over some bigger bumps. I have checked the shocks, ball joints (drivers side lower had a little play, will replace), steering linkage, and everything looks okay. Does anyone have any other ideas besides the ball joint?

 

what year truck? 2wd 4x4? more info may help us tell you what could be wrong...

but ball joints can be very noise once they are way past needing to be replaced

 

Sorry, its a 97 f-150 4x4. XLT, supercab, 4.6.

 

I also developed a slight thump on my 98 f-150 4X4 2 weeks ago. i have looked at it, took it for a drive tonight and it only does it when i turn left then back right 1/4 turn. ball joints were checked today and no problems with them. i am leaning toward the steering link joint. too wet and cold tonight to look at it here in Iowa. my right tire looked like someone ran into it 2 weeks ago. alignment is still holding the truck straight.

 

Check the stabalizer bar links at each end of the stabalizer bar.I bet the bushings are cracked and there is play in them.

 

Or the bolts are broken on one end.
