Default 00' WJ Larado front end issue.

I bought a WJ for my wife about a week ago. When I took it for a test drive there was a clunking on the driver side front whenever I hit the slightest bump. I figured the shock was shot, so I figured no big deal. Well I just put a new shock on and took it for a ride and its still doing it. I checked the sway bar bushings and the control arm bushings. everything seemed fine. Anyone have any suggestion. Its a 2000 Grand Larado bone stock with Dana 30, Dana 35, I6, Select-trac TC, and I am not sure what trans. is in it.

I will check that tomorrow. I don't think it is that because the sound is coming from driver side, but I will check.

Had lots of clunking on my 97 changed ball joints and clunking went away but then again the whole front end was pretty much worn out on mine.
