Clunk in front end

Gang,
My '01 4.4 SP has developed a weird clunk in the front end that occurs when going over bumps or when jerking the wheel quickly back and forth. I recently did a brake job myself, so I suspected that maybe I didn't put something back tight enough. I checked all of the bolts and they are torqued correctly, and there's no play anywhere.

Anybody got any obvious ideas? Thanks!

This seller is the same one I purchased my links from, he's got another pair for sale. Even if this is not your problem, on an 01 X5, it'd be a good idea to swap them out.
