As the title suggests, I'm hearing a clunking noise after replacing all struts and shocks on my Z with brand new Koni Yellows. I only hear it going over bumps and it sounds like it's coming from the front driver side or the driver side of the car all together.

Side note, I did tell my mechanic to loosen the front and rear sway bar and sway bar links and then tightening them back to spec so I can switch them out for the Stillen front and rear adjustable sway bars later when I go to Willow Springs in a few weeks. I wanted them broken loose because I tried getting them off on my own and I swear it was Superman that tighten those nuts.

What is your guess on what's making that clunking noise? My guess is the strut mount but then again, my car only has less than 24,000 miles.
