check the bolts on the lower ball joint...mine used to make a clunk and it was the bolt stripping out of the ball joint, factory piece too. hopefully u put lock-tite on them to prevent then from coming loose

That might be a real possibility as it happened th day after the balljoits got installed. I don't have a jack or anything so I'll stop by somewhere tomorrow to have them check

Turned out to be the rear bolt holding in the upper control arm, jsut a coincidence that it started the day after i changed the ball joints i guess. Got that done, changed the oil, power steering fluid, and did a drain and fill on the transmission fluid so hopefully im all set for a while haha

I'm going to say your noise is coming from bushings somewhere. Possibly steering rack.
