    Default clunking again

    vening everyone
    had a few ideas in the past but now thought id ask again,
    my vec c has a clunk on the front right, ive changed arb bushes, droplinks, disks and pads and top mounts. the main bang/clunk has gone but im still getting a smaller clunk when i stop and pull away again forward or backwards, not getting worse when turning now though.
    could be loose pads i suppose, but ive got GM ones so should be ok. any other ideas, only other thing ive got is wishbone rear bushes to change. i know the whole wishbone woul dbe easier but i got these before i knew that lol, driveshaft seems solid, as do all the ball joints

    they look ok, have had some crunching, soaked the rear one in wd40 and thats gone now, easy to replace, just jack up car, undo and replace, how bout the front, and how do you get to the lower rad mounts easily, or can i temp wedge the rad to see if it helps
