I can feel a clunk every time my vehicle makes sudden movements, like turning or accelerating. I feel it in the floorboards and you can hear it but it isn't exceptionally loud. If I had to describe it, it kind of feels like a bad bushing or something. I don't feel any play in the tie rods, where should I start looking?
Edit: The vehicle is a '91 XJ limited, and has been sitting around a while before I bought the vehicle

If it sounds like a bushing, it very well may be a bushing. Check all of your suspension parts, front and rear. Does this happen when you hit bumps too or is it just when you accelerate and turn?

Yes, it happens over bumps but not over every bump. Kind of strange. I'll start checking suspension parts this week I was just wondering which suspension parts would most likely cause this. My shocks and springs are good, so I'm not sure.
