I had a loud clunk in the frontend. Went to the dealer and was told 1 strut and the bushing were bad, $900. Replaced the "A" arms($95 x 2, with new bushings pressed in from Groton), the car felt tighter but the clunk was still there. Was getting ready to do the strut and decided to try disconnecting the sway bar link, no more clunk. Dealer wanted $90 for 1 link, Gronton $25. Ordered the part, replaced the sway bar link, 20 minutes and no more clunk, $685 saved.

I'm not going to ask the dealer anymore.
