Re: Is it always the stabilizer bar links? (eurotrash_pd)
I had a very bad clunking sound and it was a combination of the stablizer bar links on both sides, the ball joint on the drivers side (although I replaced both sides) AND THE CV JOINT ON THE PASSENGERS SIDE. I did all this three weeks ago and "silence is golden". My C70 has 130,000 miles on it. I don't know why the CV joint went bad. There were no cracks in the boot and it was full of grease, but had a tremendous amount of play and there was a rattle type clunking in corners when I turned left. The driver's side CV joint was fine, even though the ball joint was terrible on that side.
