Clunk when turning and going over bumps

[Martin301]

Hello, my 2005 aveo5 LS Hatchback loves to clunk around corners, when I wiggle the wheels, and over slow bumps. The noise comes from the driver's side almost right underfoot. I have replaced the control arms, strut assemblies, stabilizer bar end links, stabilizer bar bushings, and tie rods that were bad, and now the clunk is even worse somehow. I think it's steering rack or gear related because now that there's no play in the tie rods, the play in the steering rack has nowhere else to go maybe. Thank you for hopefully postponing my inevitable insanity.

Looks like you replaced just about anything that could make clunks. Maybe motor mounts? Or if the strut mount bushings are installed upside down(loaded struts have been shipped with this problem) you could have insane clunks.

I have actually replaced the engine mounts as well (I live in Michigan and a lot of stuff failed because of roads). The clunk can only be felt through the tie rods when you wiggle the wheel when your hand is on it, and the orientation of the strut bearings were the same as the stock struts so it shouldn't be that.

Are the rack mounts loose or is the rubber cracked, split, degraded?

or maybe inner tie rods bad?

I will double check the rack mount and the rubber underneath that in the morning, but I have changed the inner tie rod already.
