I had a similar problem. Clunks and bangs on less than perfect roads. At the last alignment, the shop said upper control arm bushings. Rather than replacing piecemeal, I replaced all the front end bushings with t3technique poly bushings. I was expecting improved control. I wasn’t expecting the quietness… Take it to your friendly local alignment shop. They’ll tell you what needs replacing. Then visit Christopher’s website and order everything he’s got. Expect to spend about $400. Add the NICE sway bar and it goes up to $634. Installation takes about 8 hours if you’ve never done it before. Makes a nice DIY weekend project. My bus is ready for another 300,000 miles. (I expect to wear tires much more slowly.) And it’s so quiet!
