I had the EXACT same problem after replacing my front struts with Bilstein TCs. There was complete silence at the front end for awhile, then I started getting this low frequency clunking. On both sides of the front end, check your swaybar link nuts on both ends of the link. Mine were loose. Try an open end wrench (16mm, I think) on the backside of the link to keep it from rotating, and then tighten up the lock nuts.

My front end is quiet again, and I'm loving it...
