Default Front Suspension Clunk over bumps and turning, any ideas?

I replaced the following:
  • balljoints
  • tie-rod ends
  • lower control arms
  • springs/shocks
  • strut top mounts
  • driver side inner tie-rod
I just tighened all bolts on swaybars and entire front end, including subframe, brakes, etc. I have the Danzing swaybars.

It sounds like it's coming from the passenger side, the Lexus dealership said they can't find anything obvious and want $500 to start tearing it apart. If I do a slalom type motion with the wheel it happens, somtimes when I hit the brakes, and over bumps most of the time.

HELP!

I have this same problem, but mine sounds like its from the front left side...It seems like after I did the Balljoints I started hearing it, and my friend re-tightened everything. Let me know if you figure this out.

I was gonna say cracked swaybar, but looks like they ruled that out.
