new owner with questions - clunk?
hey guys, just wanted to check in, im a recent proud owner of a 97 coach edition ls400 with about 167k
car is in wonderful condition except for one thing (so far)
when going up or down driveways and when hitting the brakes somewhat hard there is a clunk in the front end. no problems with steering or accelration. i am pretty car savy just not with this one yet. does anyone have any ideas what this could be? ie. something that is common with these cars, a bad bushing, tranny mount, steering component?
thanks yall!

thanks for the replys yall. I checked the drag strut bushings and although they were pretty nasty looking the rubber was still intact. Dx ended up being a bad right lower ball joint.
