Have checked the anti-sway bars and they are ok - when their bushings go they "squeak". This is a clunking sound not a squeak.

I was thinking more along the connections to everything else for them rather than the bushings. I found a tie-rod end just barely lose on my '99 once and it would cause a pop/clunk whatever sound but only when going in/out of a parking lot at an angle. The bolt was just a hair lose which when tightened, solved the noise.
