Hey guys,

Got a problem I'm hoping y'all can help with.

It's a sn-95 and the problem is I hear a clunk if I turn my steering wheel close to lock or at full lock and come to a stop.

For example if I got to the end of a court to make a u-turn and turn the wheel to full or close to full lock then come to a stop I will hear a clunk. I get a feeling it's my tierod ends which I replaced not long ago. But I haven't greased in a while.

Is it my tie rod ends or is this normal in a mustang? It's weird. Maybe its my brake pads? [Confused]

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks [patriot]

edit: just went out to try and replicate the sound and it isnt doing it now. wtf? [Confused]

Not a clue what it could be. Likely its steering related is my guess

hmm dammit... no coilovers, all stock.

Any ideas on how to narrow it down. car does it while moving so its hard to get underneath it and listen for the clunk. It's also hard to replicate it.
