when i go around a corner at normal speed every great while i hear a thunk or clunk at the front driver side by the tire. i also can feel it in my left foot when its on the floorboard. i know its not tires. could there be some way it has to do with suspension i never have had new suspension on here or replaced any of it dont know about other owners. 185,000 miles on it. looks pretty original though. doesnt fell bad or worn when i push down on hood or anything. only every great great while when i take a corner

look for any loose bolts along the suspension if its not a bearing. I had that problem and all it was a a stupid loose bolt on the control arm

It might, just might be the CV joints. IDK if they'll make a clunking sound but they click. If they're really bad they might clunk. That's what i thought since it is only on the driver's side when you take a corner.

I bet anything if its a really loud clunk its gonna be your sway bar.
I broke mine before and it was a loud clunk but it didnt seem to affect driving, think it costs like 150 to get it fixed
