just wondering ive got a 1988 camaro no wonder bar or sway bar the day before i went to get them i started to hear a loud clunk coming from what seems to be the gear box. i do drve it hard especially cornering. could i have craked my k member. also all bushings look good also no play in the ball joints, and new struts and loiring springs.

 

Double-check the trans mount.

the trans mount is solid same with th torque arm. rear bushings are good. it also does it when i go over a bump with the left tire also

 

i second that, it seems to be a popular problem.

 

one more thing when im siting still and crank it all the way to the left it clunks

 

check your panhard bar / trace brace bar . it goes from r/h side of axle to l/h side of body . on my 89rs all 3 bolts that secure brace to body had fallen out . weird handeling and CLUNK . replaced bolts , all was good . if this is your problem , clean female threads and use locktite on new bolts .

 

i get a similar sound from the front end when i almost lockout my steering.

 

well when i lock my gear box repetidly i get the clunk and it deffinetly is coming from the front by the gear box j/w if my k member is craked is it behind the gear box or visual its really tiking me off

 

i have the same problem so i don't think you cracked your k member. I think it's a front end wear issue for me. lots of miles and loose front end.

 

I just came across a clunk on my 88, but come to find out it was a stabilizer bar link that had snapped in two. not sure if you checked already.
