Clunking sound in steering/suspension

Hi all,
My X('04-3.0-122K miles) has developed a "clunking" sound when I do slow speed turns or while braking as I turn. I changed the ball joints and control arm bushings about a year ago, but now there is a distinct sound coming from the front suspension area now. I can "feel" it in the steering wheel as well when it happens. It feels like something is binding or getting hung up a bit while turning/moving, but then quickly slips, binds up, slips, etc. It produces a "clunk" or knock sound each time it happens. It also seems to do it only on uneven surfaces. Any ideas where to start on the trouble-shoot for the prob? Any help or advice would be appreciated! Thanks


Steve
