I've been chasing front end clunking for a while. LCAs, sway bar bushings, end links, steering rack and bushings have all been changed.
I have the front end apart waiting on a front shock, and was inspecting the strut/shock mount. The mount itself looks perfect, but the rubber isolator that fits between the mount and the strut tower seems compressed and worn in a spot.
Is this isolator sold seperately? All of the images I see of mounts do not appear to include this piece. Could a worn isolator cause clunking?
