Have a look at your upper engine mount tie bar and hydramount mine was both split and replacing cured my clunk.

What a pig of a job. I eventually cut down 3 spring compressors, one good quality one and dropped the subframe before everything fell into place.

One thing I did do is to wrap the compressed spring with a tie down, which helped when taking the tension off the compressors-saved them flying all over he wheel well and my face.

The quality of the shocks were iffy, in that the brake-pipe brackets needed a bit of manipulation to get the angle correct.

Bad news- The @~*&^ clunking is still there, even after fitting a spare lower engine mount just in case.
