My solution for "clunks" on my WS6. I know this is might be common knowledge but it turns out that the upper and lower ball-joints have been the cause of the clunks on my car the whole time. The issue was that when the car was on the lift, they did not "feel" to be shot. We put a pry bar on them and even "jarred" them with a rubber mallet and nothing seemed to be wrong with them, so we assumed they were still good.
Turns out when the car has full weight on it, and the car is rocked by another person, you could feel a crunch in the ball joint itself if your hand was under the A-arm. Again this ONLY made itself known under the full weight of the vehicle. So if you are having that "clunk" try this out. Just thought I'd share. I ended up replacing the bottom ball joint and replacing the whole top A-arm with an upgraded A-arm from BMR.
Many thanks to BMR in Tampa. They were kind, honest and helped me a bunch in finding this solution. Their upper A-arms helped to solve this issue like a boss.
