Default clunking sound after letting go of pedals

its back I replaced the mm and it was gone about half a year ago now it's back. Few days ago it started to clunk really loud and worst is one of my wheel stud along with s lug flew off. Also, I notice whenever I back out turning my drive wheel I hear a single clunk. I'm guessing it's a cv joint or ball joint. How much I'm looking at for repair I'm scheduling a appointment for a Monday since I work on the weekend.

And also belle tires stripped my lugs and told me they were all stripped and quoted me 112 bucks for 2 wheel stud replacement 5 new lugs and a tire patch! Talk about overprice!

Update:

Bell Tire just finis replacing my wheel studs, driving it home the clunking sounds disappear! can anyone enlighten me how wheel studs are the cause of a clunking noise? unless the Bell Tire employee did something extra for no fee.
