clunking sound from front suspension

[IgottaV8]

I just put in the tubular K-member and 03/04 cobra A-Arms in, and when I turn the wheels close to its max, and I'm moving, I get a weird clunking sound, it is worrying me a bit. Does anybody have any ideas why it is doing this? Or a way to figure out?

Lift the front of the car turn the wheel all the way to one side and spin the wheel. I don't know? That's what I would do. You probably should have checked stuff like that when you installed it. The wheels may be rubbing on the a-arms.

Well, by the time I got finished, they were already kicking people out. So I didn't have time to do any double checking.

what do you mean not enough time. You always have to allow time for double checking. That would justify a waste of time if it isnt done right the first time.

Is it coming from the front? After I installed my motor mounts this weekend it raised my engine and my exhaust was moved around, flowmasters started clunking against the body. Think its something like that?

Also sounds like it could be a bad ball joint.

Actually, it did raise my engine up just a bit, this Sunday I will get under it and check it out. Thanks for all the advice guys, I'll let you know what I find out.
