Yesterday I did a 4 hour roadtrip over the roadtrip I noticed my front end clunk from the drivers side front about half a dozen times. Got a friend to jump on bumper while I listened and couldn't find anything. I torqued up all the suspension just to be safe.checked ball joints tie rods etc. All seems good. And now that I'm in the city the noise doesn't happen anymore. My guess is driver side axel shaft u joint starting to act up. Anyone have an idea?

The only "clunk" that I hear about fairly often is the steering clunk, from what I've gathered that comes from where the steering shaft comes through the fire wall. There is a plastic piece that slides out from the fire wall on the shaft. Hope this helps!

I have the same clunk as well right after putting bushwacker flats on this clunk started I would agree with it being the fender well liner.

My clunk is defiantly not fender liner unfortunately. It sounded like binding in front driver wheel area *clunk clunk clunk*. When I took the jeep for a drive this morning there was a different noise from the same area the new noise is more of a rub but I think and hope the new noise is related to the clunk I was getting on highway are related. My new guess is bad wheel bearing.

here is a video of the new noise which I heard this morning which has disappeared and I have not been able to recreate since.
