odd clunk when turning left?

[Bob902]

The anti sway bar end link mounts have to be properly torqued or they will make random popping/thunk type noises in curves as that is when the sway bar exerts the most pressure on the end links. Worth putting a torque wrench on them to ensure they are actually torqued properly. You have to use an open ended socket wrench and an allen type wrench to hold the bolt while tightening it otherwise they don't fully tighten.

This! Had this issue when I put the Eibach coilovers on. An offset 18mm wrench and an allen wrench to keep it from rotating while you tighten it. Issue solved for my truck.

I couldn't reproduce the thunk to save my life but it eventually got bad enough that it thunked over every bump. I figured whatever was going would fall off and I would have answer. when I pulled it off, the strut had absolutely no rebound. it would give resistance but not bounce back so they got replaced with Bilsteins

My 22 pops at full lock to the left found this video. I went to my truck and I could see were it the spindle hits the control arm.
