Left Front Suspension Clunk
 
I've been dealing with a left front suspension clunk from my FC for the past few months and I can't seem to find where it is coming from. The suspension clunks when I take a tight left turn at parking lot speeds, a hard left at autocross speeds, and sometimes when the left wheel rolls over a bump. There's no change in steering feel when the clunk occurs.

I have replaced the outer tie rod ends to no effect. A fellow FC autocrosser suspected bad sway bar end links, which were replaced with new OEM parts today along with a Racing Beat front sway bar. Still clunking. Anyone have any other ideas as to what's causing this? I can't take the car autocrossing again until I fix the clunk.

My guess would be ball joint or steering rack mount, you already checked wheel bearings i assume? Inner tie rods? Get it on a rack or jack stand and start yanking on stuff til you find it.
