Clunk in front suspension

It's apiece of cake. Aside from the lugnuts, 4 nuts. That's it. I must stress the need for the thin 8mm open end wrench to keep the link studs from rotating when tightening the nuts. Also. After removing the old links, I still found no indication of wear on them, but the thumping is gone.

I've got the same symptoms, how do you tell if you need to replace the sway bar links when it's on the lift?

You have to simulate a "load" on the suspension, which ain't easy. Otherwise, try to slide under while the vehicle is on level ground. I'd suggest if you're gonna DIY, and your X has over 40K miles on her, the parts are $60, so go for it, cause they'll need to be replaced eventually.
