We actually have our own digest. [EMAIL PROTECTED] If the car you are looking at is not rusted out, they last forever. They are cheap to maintain.

It clunks once when I turn left, then once more when I straighten back out. If I'm just stopped and turn the wheel all the way left and back, there's no clunk, so I have to be moving for it to clunk. The clunk sounds like it's coming from the front left, or beneath the center console area. Here's what has been replaced fairly recently. Front strut tower mounts Control Arm with ball joints Control Arm bushings Tie-rods Engine Mounts Tranny mounts Sway bar links have not been replaced, but I disconnected the sway bar Any other ideas?
