Clunk in front end when turning (once per turn direction)
Hey all,
I have a clunk in my front end when I turn either direction. I replaced the pitman arm and inner tie-rod 2 months ago and replaced the ball joints just over a year ago. I have a DT track bar and replaced the passenger side bushing.
I have a clunk when I turn from one direction to the other. I haven't had a chance to look under there lately, but do any of you have any ideas? it seems like I can feel it in the floor board but hard to tell.
Any ideas of what to specifically look at would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Could be the stabilizer; 225,000 miles and still the stock one.
I'll have to get under there and take a look with some one on the steering.
I'll do that tonight and post my findings.
Thanks!

I took a quick look under there with someone in the truck turning the wheel when running, truck stationary. Clunk is still there; with wheels not turning. have to look more in depth by getting under there for a longer period of time. Could Balljoints make that noise? it looks like the steering box is tight. Seems to happen when wheels are turning to the left more than when turning to the right.
Any input?

I replaced the Track Bar 2 years ago with a DT bar. I replaces the passenger side bushing about 2 months ago. I will have to lay under there and look hard.
I can feel the clunk in the bumper; I thought it might be the PS pulsing through the winch, but there is less feel of the clunk when I hold the winch.
