Based on what you've checked and replaced I wouldn't think it's a driveline/suspension issue. You should start looking at weird things like: Loose or cracked crossmembers. Broken spo

So @KATOOM wants to know more about my mystery clunk.
When unloaded I have a pretty nasty clunk/crash that can be felt in the floor. Steering doesn't seem to be effected though. It is directly related to when you unload the front suspesnion.
From the drivers side it feels like it is coming from the passenger side, from the passenger side it doesn't feel as bad.
Before we get into what I have replaced we need to look at the history of my truck, the PO must have broke the front axle as i have a 1994 d60 under the front rather than the 2000 that I was supposed to have on the truck,
Things I have replace that made no difference,
- ball joints, all of them
- steering assembly, 2x
- control arms 2x, upper and lower with new hardware and welding the caster adjuster in place, now have adjustable control arms due to that.
- control arm bushings 3x
- body mounts,
- sway bar mounts and bushings
- sway bar end links front and back.
- wheel bearings
- shocks 2x
- track bar 3x
Things I am wondering about still,
Motor mounts, doesn't happen when I get on the skinny pedal though.
ovaled out body mounts for the control arms.
So who has the magic answer to my clunk? I rightly dont care anymore. after 4 years of the clunk I just couldn't be bothered to fix it lol.
