Default Front End Clunk

I just replaced my front lower control arms on my 06 gt hoping to get rid of the clunk coming from the front end when going over ruff roads but its still there. Yes, it was worse with the bad ball joints but it still persist even after being replaced. The only thing that hasn't been replaced on the front are the strut mounts. Could they be where it is coming from? I have my vehicle lowered 2.25 inches and have brand new inner outer tie rods, GT500 control arms and Tokico Dspec struts.

When I had this problem I had to tighten my sway bar end links. Loosen them up and apply some lock tite and re tighten them down. Problem solved for me. Hopefully it's something simple like that

Retight the sway bar theres ur solution. Strut mounts are usually when you are turning the wheel. Unless they are badly damaged.
