so awhile back i got a nasty clunk from driver side sounded like a ball joint clunk. replaced lower ball joints on both sides. that didnt fix it. got omni power upper control arms with the new balljoints. that didnt fix it. axles and cv shafts are both good. replaced inner tie rod. it was bad solved problem for like a hour then clunking came back. could it be outer tie rod? the rack? theres not a whole lot left to replace any help would be fan-*******-tastic

this is on a 94 civic ex

is it only when you turn the wheel? if it when you are turning the wheel, then it might be loose rack mounts, the bushings might be wasted.thats all i can think of.

make sure everythings tight. pick the car up and wiggle the wheel from top to bottom, if its loose you need a bearing, then try left to right, if its loose you need tie rods or the rack is loose, but if its not either one then check the strut mounts on top and bottom, if its not that then talk your friend into swaping the strut to see if its that, instead of going out and not working a strut can seaze up and feel really stiff and knock over a bump.
