clunky gl550 fixed sway bar bushings struts and endlinks
Someone, please help I replaced front and rear struts end links and sway bar bushings in front and complete rear bar with the attached bushings!!! The car is still clunking over bumps.

If it didn’t clunk before and you’ve replaced the struts - did you do complete struts or reuse the old strut and put a new airbag on?
the airbag retainer nut, if not tightened star tight, will allow some movement of the airbag on the strut and will cause a clunking noise.
